Hi from Tel-Aviv, Israel
« on: November 26, 2016, 07:32:48 »
Hi there.

i'm new at Playmofriends. I'm Shai from Tel-Aviv, Israel. I'm a stock exchange broker/portfolio manager. I'm also the admin of www.Playmodeal.com
I started to collect Playmobil sets to my children and I like it very much. In order to to get more and spend less I looked for the best Amazon deals on these sets and
found out that the prices between the Amazon sites change rapidly and sometimes there are amazing prices but they end up very quickly. So, I opened an affiliate site to help people find good bargains on current playmobil sets on 3 European Amazon sites (DE, UK, FR). I chose the sets that I think give alot in the first place and I monitor their price. Further more, I found out that for a non-EU residents, like myself, the more expensive shipping costs are compensated by 18% tax reduction (free VAT) so maybe the shipping looks "heavy" but in fact there isn't much difference. So for me as an Israeli, or for an American, Canadian, Russian and so on it is a really good way to enjoy European Playmobil prices.
That's it, I'm here to observe and enjoy :-)

Welcome Shai from Stroud, England!
Is Playmobil popular in Israel? I have had a few expressions of interest from Israel residents in my eBay.co.uk listings of 'used' Playmobil in the last few years, but the shipping costs seem to put people off a bit So its good to know you can save on the VAT on new sets at least.
Some of those Playmodeal prices look enticing!
At that moment the ship suddenly stopped rocking and swaying, the engine pitch settled down to a gentle hum. 'Hey Ford.' said Zaphod, 'that sounds good. Have you worked out the controls on this boat?' 'No,' said Ford, 'I just stopped fiddling with them.' (With thanks to Douglas Adams)
