Hello,
I had been in touch with a French collector named Geraldine Fund who asked me to buy for her some Smurfs objects from Italy.
I haven't heard from her in a month, and I have here at my house 350 euros worth of items (including 4 chocolate easter eggs...) packed and ready to be shipped to France, once she pays me.
Does any of you have recent news on her?

Thanks!

No news about her... I hope she's not ill or something. :-?

Anyway, I will be waiting till the end of the month then the items I bought for her will be listed here (about 350 euros worth of smurf objects) if some member is itnerested in buying them at the exact same price I paid for them.

Today I got an e-mail from her saying she has sent the money via the old "cash in an envelope" way.
:beer:

An illegal and dangerous method to send money... specially when it's so much... hope it arrives safe. :D

Yes, I have a tracking number and moreover she should have had included some Smurf objects she was supposed to buy for me from France and Belgium in exchange of what I bought here in Italy for her.

Package with money inside has arrived!
Better late (three months) than never.
As a matter of fact I'm happy because many of the things she sent me were never available here in Italy.
I will now send her the objects I bought for her, hoping the four chocolate smurf easter eggs don't melt in the delivery process.
