I might be in for a group buy, Everdrive with cover. However would shipping to Germany be an issue? In a group buy, will the items still be sent out individually to each buyer directly from the seller?

doesn't that depend where the 'group buyer' is located ?
since these are manufactured in the ukraine (?) it would be a waste of money for you to group
purchase from someone half way around the planet to save $15.00 then pay extra for postage back ???
or should i get my coat....

@Nightwolve: @rtyper:
Thanks for your replies. :) Yes, overseas shipping costs and 19% import customs duties could make this rather unprofitable for me even in a group buy. Plus, I wasn't aware of where to get a shell for the Turbo Everdrive, and the price of the Stoneage gamer deluxe package is way out of what I'd be willing to pay.

I'll have a deeper look into the different stores that are selling Turbo Everdrives. I would be even satisfied with the more affordable Low Cost Flash HuCard, but there are none available at the moment.

I was mainly interested in using it for some of the really expensive games, for the rest I prefer either original games or Virtual Console purchases.

Everdrive fits everything, unless you get the USB connector (developer model) in which case you can't use it with a SuperGrafx.

I stole nullity's quote from another thread :P

I'm not developing anything so I didn't get one added.

I had one handy to show someone they fit in a TE. It's the super low profile type.
