Sometimes when mailing US sellers on ebay that only ship to US they are unaware that there are many potential bidders outside US and that its not that hard to send a chip outside US. I cant find a thread a while ago where we discussed how the different continents/countries are represented in the collecting community.
So, where do you live?

I don't recognise man-made national borders - the only reason to have a passport when crossing them is because without it those who have been given the power to abuse would arrest me without one

If I live in Canada, should I vote Europe in the poll? USA? Russia?
If I live in Russia, should I vote Europe in the poll? Asia (outside of China)? Do I get to vote twice? Is voting for Russia allowed?
If I live in Costa Rica, well... nobody there speaks English... never mind. |

I am very sorry, i made a mistake by not adding Canada and for not explaining how Russians should vote. I hope you can forgive my mistake.
As for voting options i was hoping to add new countries/parts as the thread grew, but forum permissions does not seem allow that.
Perhaps we can agree that instead of being a scientific correct thread without errors, this is now just a quick poll to see how the members are spread around the world.
If someone with rights to change the poll reads this, PLEASE add Canada!
