Italy was a great tip. He only had it listed for Italian shipping, so I was not bidding against very many people. He is charging 20 EUR for shipping :/ but it's still a good deal.

Yep but can't really be helped

Just make sure he packs it well

I've been having terrible terrible luck with steels as of late

I always do. Apparently "please wrap in a generous amount of extra bubble wrap" means send it in a non-padded envelope with a thin layer of bubble wrap around it. I'm getting really tired of it.

Try
Please pack this as if it was a raw egg
The outer packaging is far note important to me then the disc
Heck I don't care if you keep the disc as that can be replaced but this metal case thing, well it is incredibly hard for me to find it
I would like you to wrap this up as if it was going to do 12 rounds of pass the parcel at a 7 year olds birthday party, but instead of using wrapping paper, it is important you use bubble wrap instead
Oh and to be clear
I am happy to pay any extra for the materials and postage costs that are a result of packing the item as I have explained to you
Thanks

That is one of the best things I ever read here - that's exactly the note to hit - no one does it to annoy us they just don't get it - they have no interest in hassle either ..

Thanks Lowly - perfect!!

No worries (I learnt it at school {how to remove yourself from knowing something and they to explain how to do something to someone who does not have any understanding of anything} it comes off as patronising in most cases)
I now expect this to be the standard wrapping instructions for anyone giving there seller "Packing Instructions"

Thing is... You get an 80gbp dead island sticker book for 20 gbp because someone does not understand the value of it then, immediately after you've purchased it you expect some major brain transformation to take place so they suddenly understand they are no longer holding a worthless lump of metal but rather the holy grail you have sought for so long...
