If anyone is intending to participate in this auction and is able to collect stuff in person please contact me if you'd be willing to help me out. I'd love to bid on a couple of items but it's not really possible from overseas. |

Not much seems to have hit the reserve, but there's some nice camera equipment. Shame about the lack of provenance. |

I am not in the U.S. but I think the answer is yes if you have paid the postage! |

Participants in GSA auctions (which must be US Citizens), are obligated to acknowledge the terms and conditions of the sale, part of which includes compliance with federal laws governing exportation of dual use technology (under ITAR). Unfortunately most of the material being offered would be subject to ITAR statutes. |

I asked directly to GSA and they said that was possible also for me to join that I m not an US Citizen. Maybe there are limitations for buying and receive items. |
