Mercadolibre.com This is another someone listed-its like our eBay-it says affiliate of eBay but from what I see on eBay's homepage here in the USA-eBay is not listed in Colombia. The logo in Col. has all small letters while the US eBay is spelled with a large "B". They have a lot of items -you would have to verify Shipping method and time and of course payment.I don't know if they have an escrow method as here with eBay.That is, a way of holding payment until the item is in the buyer's possession and then payment is dispensed.DO a search here for the other sites-somone had a previous thread listing 'em all.
