Love to be able to take advantage of this (my
buddy just got another 30D, and we're both
curious as to my OM lenses on his bodies), but
unfortunately, the seller in China only takes
"confirmed" ePay addresses (or the risible
options of Western Union or bank wire transfer).
What are "confirmed" ePay addresses, you might ask?
Why, that's simple. A "confirmed" ePay address
is simply ePay's euphemism for a *United States*
address. If you're anywhere else on the planet
and you want one of these jobbies, you're
basically SOL. There appear to be a few
exceptions to this "confirmed address" rule, but
they're statistically insignificant. "Plus ça
change, plus c'est la même chose."
