Sup is wrong if you live in the US or most countries in the EU. If you create an account (requires phone number) then you can have it shipped to you directly in whichever country you live in. Don't waste money on proxy fees.

If, by "marketplace," you mean the classifieds, there seem to be two rules that govern how soon a member is able to post:

Quote

Creating sale / trade threads in the Classifieds subforum is limited to Geekhack.org users who have been members of the forum for at least 2 months and have 25 or higher post count.

Whoops, I took a look at the page and yeah, it's been discontinued. You won't be able to buy one from them anymore, so do try looking around /r/mechmarket.
