Not that I live in the EU, but I would have thought that if you are having trouble with shipping within the EU and really want a particular item, then maybe a train journey to pick the item up could be an option. EU rail links and journeys are easy in your part of the world. At least then you would not miss out on a nice piece for your collection.

I believe that personal collection of expensive and/or irreplaceable items is the preferred option for many collectors, not only of antique weapons, but also of other types of collectable.
I live in Australia, and have had several visitors from USA, Europe & South East Asia who came to Australia for no reason other than to collect a purchase. |

I don't really see that as a viable option most of the time, unfortunately.
