I'm looking for all three of the Bicycle 2008 Election Decks. I asked on here, mainly because I want them as cheap as possible, and while I'll only accept good quality cards, I don't mind if they're sealed or not. So, if anyone has these three decks that they'd like to sell, then just drop a comment down here or PM me. Please note that I live in the UK, so we'll need to discuss shipping costs.
Also, if no one here has them, then it'd be great to get a link to a site that sells all three of them for quite a cheap price. Preferably a UK based site, as I'd rather not have to shell out so much for shipping.
And just to point out, it's probable that I won't be buying them immediately, so it'd be better to have a link to a store rather than say, an eBay sale that ends in the next few days.
Thanks!

Thanks for the link. Unfortunately, this site is based in America, but I just sent an e-mail requesting shipping prices.
If I can't find any UK sites stocking the 2008 Election Decks, I'll look into this site. Thanks!

Oh, I just got the reply. Unfortunately, with the price of the decks plus shipping, it's a bit too expensive. But I might buy them once I have some more money, if I don't find a better deal.

Those decks are getting harder to find, and of very limited appeal outside the US.  I'm inclined to think they'll be hard to impossible to find in a UK shop, or anywhere in Europe.

That's what I was coming to realise. I thought I'd check here anyway, in case anyone perchance knew a site. And there's always a chance that someone on here, or someone who joins in the future may have them, and would be okay with selling them to me. But thanks for the feedback.

How bad can eBay shipping really be?  I think if you poked around, you'd find a seller willing to ship at a reasonable price, particularly if you purchased more than one item from the same seller.

I didn't say the shipping on eBay was bad; I said that I would rather it not be an eBay listing as I won't be buying immediately. Either way, I can't find all three of the decks on eBay, only two of the set. And they've both got quite expensive shipping. But I'll keep on trying, and hopefully sort out some kind of deal.
