Seems like it would be pretty hard to sell cards from Mexico. I think you'd have to put that much more faith in the postal service of two countries to get a deal done.

I'm actually dealing with a seller right now from Mexico who wants 5,000 pesos to ship a '52 Mantle.

I told him "adios".

That's a red flag right there. No way are they going to ship a '52 Mantle from Bulgaria, to Mexico, and then to you.

Unless you live in Bulgaria.

Do you live in Bulgaria?

If so, you should jump on it.

How hard was it for Copperfield? Not very apparently. He had mules move them into the US and had a variety of outlets here. If this is a criminal ring, they're not worried about the vagaries of the Mexican mail.

I barely trust the USPS, let alone the Mexican postal service that is probably even more inclined to have lost packages.
