annoying UK 8-bit snobbery ..

[Jay Vaughan]

So, I've been trying to score an Oric Atmost for *years*, no kidding.   
I was all set to win this auction today:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=170315779823

But then the seller banned me "For being in Austria" .. wtF?!?!?!

If any of you UK peeps happen across an Atmos, please get it  
immediately and sell it to me for whatever you think the effort is  
worth.  I want one really badly now, especially after having been shut  
down like this just minutes away from finally winning a decent Ebay  
auction.

(I got these two items, though:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&item=220388186610

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&item=130295990122

w00t for Flynn's future toybox!)
