They probably do. eBay automatically sets it like that for most sellers, so if you ask them they are usually happy to ship anywhere, providing you pay the costs.

And for anyone looking at the All Hail the king, its the Bits and Pieces version, not an MG original. Just bear that in mind when it comes to price.

Thanks for the heads up Jug.
That will reduce my bid a tad ... though will still be bidding.
Cheers.

As a general rule; If any of Marcel's designs are on eBay, they aren't going to be his originals. There are very few of them, and they all tend to be in the hands of some serious collectors.

What do you think an original would be worth Oli ?
Tough question I know .... like pricing the mona lisa.

The copies are selling for 80 Euro's but they are out of stock. http://www.sloyd.fi/hail-king-p-226.html

Current http://xe.com price makes it about 80.00 EUR = 106.217 USD + the $18.88 shipping.

I also recieved the following message from the seller.

From your message, I cannot see what auction you were referring to.
However, since you mentioned M G, I assume you meant the Marcel Gillem Chess piece puzzle. That auction has ended and was sold to someone in UK. Yes, it did have the M G on the top.

So just how do you tell an original from the copy ?
