Not that I actually have anything to buy or sell, but I sometimes think about importing stuff when I leave.

I'd like to see some HANES wifebeaters. Not the retarted ones I get here.

What would you like to get in?

Well I do get all my workout supplements imported from http://www.bodybuilding.com, since the cost of protein powder is 3x what it is at home (even with shipping, which usually doubles the price, I save money importing it).

If I had to pick something else it would be deodorant.

Second the root beer... and where do you get those two items? Please tell? And for how much? A&W is my favorite.

i think the soda companies would do well to import Ginger Ale. my 유학생 korean friends in america didn't like root beer, but they sure did like ginger ale. (yeah, i know, you can get ginger ale here, but they should promote it more or something. oh, sweet diabetes in can!).

Deli meats and cheeses.

I hate having to go to Seoul for these things. It would be nice if E-Mart carried something other than processed ham and cheddar cheese.

I think if one looks in Itaewon, many of these items can be found. For those not in Seoul, they are just a dream.

Twice a year, I get a package from the parents with assorted sundries...I think this thread has inspiried me to make that box a bit heavier next time.

A 1968 Triumph TR5.

This one's a left hand drive on French plates.

But it may be that I can only afford a TR-250: this was a less powerful version for the US, lacking the fuel injection of the European models.[/img]

Cornmeal porridge and festival dumplings - specifically from the carribean takeaway near my old workplace. That was a proper breakfast! Razz
