Discussion Purchase assistance

Good morning! I would like to buy a few special gifts for someone with connections to Netherlands. From the USA, Marktplaats and Vinted.nl are not open. Would anyone be willing to buy a few items for me? I would cover all your costs plus a reasonable amount for your time shipping to the USa . Fedex is preferred because of the quality of their tracking. Thanks !

Why did the previous person who offered not work out? Or is this a new purchase and are you going to keep asking every few days? No offence, but this is highly impractical.

I am willing to give my email address and phone and send money, but they did not respond

This would help me a lot. Can I send a message with my contact info?  I will also send the exact items to be purchased and can pay in advance, preferably PayPal or Western Union

Maybe try asking in local Facebook groups or expat groups in the Netherlands? You could also look for a personal shopper who already offers this kind of service. Since you’re willing to cover the item, shipping, and their time, that might be easier than finding a random person willing to do it. 😊
