european barter
Any suggestions about merchandise that might be in demand in Germany,Austria, Italy. I'm thinking about taking stuff that the locals may not be able to get readily but would really like ie levis, cd's ????

This reminds me of the cold war days, when visitors behind the "iron curtain" were anxious for visitors to sneak in levis and other objects and trade them.. But alas, Germany, Austria, and Italy all may have surpassed the US in their general standard of living. People are not sitting there waiting for people from the outside world to bring them things they have no access to. Believe it or not most people there even have electricity and inside plumbing too!!
