European or UK delivery is fine, but will cost more, so you'd pay the actual amount of the shipping cost.
PS: I believe the old part numbers for the boards with the bad faulty FX570M Nvidia chips (which nearly bankrupted NVIDIA) were 72w7650 and/or 72w7874. I could be wrong about those nunbers. In any case those are the bad boards with NVIDIA fault that is not properly repairable, as it was a design defect. Some of them may have been refurbished by IBM, I don't know. IN any case what I am selling has a new part number not seen in the HMM because it was produced 3 years after NVIDIA disaster and is free of defects. They wanted a new part number I suppose, so they could tell which boards were made with the new chips. IN any case, on the NVIDIA chip itself, which is soldered to the board, there is a production date of 2011, which proves it is not faulty and nobody ever had any problems with these. They are very rare. I bought it to make the ultimate t601p. As it turned out, I have not yet gotten around to it and I feel this should be used by someone now.
