Bernard,
I never came accross anything like it, but I can imagine that there are 
some legal implications resultong in certain restrictions.
Thanks for the update.
The only thing that happens to me is that a bid is sometimes blocked 
automatically when the seller wants to sell to one country or a group of 
countries only. Most people do not know how to do this and may not send 
the item to you, but the majority will even if it is indicated for one 
country in they live
