A couple of months ago I was shopping for a buttercream Bongo, and missed out by a week or so in getting the 4HH that gearhunter420 sold to mogee.

A few days ago one of my imaginary internet friends on another forum in Australia asked me to keep an eye out for him for any good deals on Bongos that I see in my travels, since he doesn't spend much time online and has not purchased anything internationally before. As it happens, mogee likes black better than buttercream, so today I've bought his buttercream 4HH Bongo and have sold my rolls burgundy 4HH to my Aussie buddy, so it's a win/win/win scenario.

As they say at Wimbledon - thank you ballboys!

There are people living there?!!!? :eek::eek::eek::eek:

Selling them your ball must be perceived as an act of charity!

The buyer runs a sheep station (or ranch, as our US friends would say). Roughly 500 miles from the state capital. Bear in mind though that the state in question (Western Australia) is around 1/4 the size of Europe, but most of it is not inhabited. The courier tells me the Bongo will take 7-9 days to get there :eek:
