...willing to help out a film enthusiast with a Super 8 problem? My favorite film has popped up on Italian eBay, but the seller does not ship outside the country. I was hoping someone might be willing to act as an intermediary, and I'd be happy to toss some extra dollars your way as well.

I'm in Italy, Marshall, I can do it!
But shipments Italy--->USA are often more expensive than USA --->Italy.
If you know a good shipment mode, tell me, for example a courier or else your preference is even better!

What a wonderful forum!!!

Indeed, Mathew. And thank you so much to Luigi! The big reveal: the film in question is a (presumably) Italian-language feature print of the David Hasselhoff masterwork REVENGE OF THE CHEERLEADERS. Yes, my favorite film. Don't judge. [Wink]

I am waiting to receive the film from the seller.

A very good and rare edition, despite the cover it does not in perfect shape, is a great collector's item!

If someone in US used to receive parcels of this size from Italy can suggest a good economical and safe courier is well accepted. The Italian post are a bit 'expensive.

Let me again take a moment to publicly thank Luigi for making this happen. Received my print today and I could not be happier. It's fascinating to see what the Italian version of this film is like. And what a rare collectable!

It was a pleasure to help a enthusiast friend!!

The film crossed in my hands and I saw what a beautiful box set is it, a nice edition dubbed in Italian, I had never seen!
