Great reply to a question about a cricket/tennis/baseball throwing machine!
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... 0756119316
Q: hello!! i would like to buy the machine!!can you send it in greece??
A: Sorry my friend, I can't ship this to greece for 3 reasons. 1. It weighs more than Stavros Flatley. 2. Shipping costs would be more than the national debt of Greece. 3. You'd probably fire baseballs at Turkey & I love the Turks as much as you Greeks, so wouldn't want to be responsible for encouraging further hostilities. σας ευχαÏιστώ Dave

My question to him!!
Q: I understand you not wanting to increase the Greek/Turkish tensions but would you consider posting it to Northern India if I promise to behave with it and not fire cricket balls at Pakistan?
A: Paul, I'm sure your intentions are honourable, but for your own sake I'm going to say no. Should your guard drop & balls are fired into Pakistan... you'd never get them back would you? ps. Anyone living near the border with Wales... I can do a good discount. pps. Joking I am

Re: Ebay reply
If you could ship to Pakistan, could it be adapted to throw a match?
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
