Well that didn't take long, I registered on Goozex.eu in less than 24h ago, knowing the popularity of it's US counter-part, I was happy to finally be able to trade with other people. "This will be great !!"
Until I saw a forum thread about the UK users favourite "feature"
Has user babaz put it
"[The] site is still in its startup phase, [the] users number[s] are too low, to further restrict trading regions to UK (the most) or to ITALY, or POLAND... c'mon, I'm from Italy... how many Italian users are there? 100 maybe?!?! [The] probabilities to actually trade are down to 0"
UK users receive from outside but will not send to any other country other than the UK
User MsbS_ explains the end result
"From a practical point of view - 6 games sent out, 700 points amassed, but no way to spend them. Disappointing, n'est-ce pas?"
UK user interceptor had this to say about his choice.
"It all boils down to postage costs. Posting games to countries outside the UK (and maybe Ireland) simply costs too much, especially as I insist on having the game signed for when it is delivered. Then both seller and buyer can be reassured it has got there safely and everyone is protected."

I would say that non UK user have to equally spend more in cost to send to them, thus balancing the cost of everybody , but considering that this problem has been unresolved since January...
I wanted to get some RPGs using Goozex, so much for that plan :(
This is why we never get nice things
