This question comes up alot and the answer is simple. This shipping cost for large, heavy items cost so much that it would kill the deal for you in Israel. The cost to ship this to Israel is going to be between $150-$175. So while this drop price is great at $259.99, when you add the $150 shipping charge to that for a total of $409.99 its not so great anymore.
On top of that the it looks like the current VAT import tax in Israel is 18% so you can add another $73.80 for a grand total of $483.79 shipped to your door if we offered it to you. I am 100% positive you can find a better deal locally on a higher end monitor that this for less money. That is why we do not offer international shipping on items such as this.
Both the shipping charges and VAT fees are out of Massdrop control. Trust me when I tell you that we offer international shipping on as many items as we can.
Cheers.
@jodasm The shipping charges would be even more to Australia. @sten97 The shipping charges to Europe are still over $100 for this monitor.

Tex-ArozziThat makes sense for low-cost monitors, and yet there's still a weird policy that MD does offer international shipping on just one model of the large 34" flat LG monitor and pretty much nothing else, including the curved version of the same monitor which is weird, since their weight and cost are quite comparable.

AnzialActually Anzial, we before offered shipping on almost all monitors on Massdrop when shipping cost much less. This year dimensional weight (which all monitor boxes fall under) shipping rates have gone way up so the shipping cost is alot more expensive this year(it has also gone up for hazmat products which is why you dont see international shipping on many items that have batteries). There might be a few monitors from time to time pop up with international shipping available but it is extremely difficult at this time.

Tex-ArozziThe flat 34" LG dropped this year had international shipping, same as before, while the curved version did not, before this year or this year, that's the part that doesn't make sense even with your explanation.

AnzialAnzial,
I am sorry. If I have offended you in some way. It seems that any response that I give to you is never good enough. You always seem to want to put me down or prove me wrong. I personally would like to get passed this. So I extend my apologies to you for any wrong doings that I have done towards you.
I am here for the community 7 days a week, 365 days a year and almost 24 hours a day unless I am sleeping. I try my absolute best to bring the community products it will be interested in. Also, when people have questions or problems I am there to help.
Again, I am sorry if I have let you down personally in that mission and will continue to strive and do better.
Cheers.

Tex-ArozziHutch, this is highly inappropriate. First of all, I have never, ever made it personal, and said as much before. My problem is with MD, and only MD. I don't know you, and I do not pass judgements on your personal merits, and your apologies are implicitly accusing me of doing so which is not only incorrect, but also quite personal, since you are passing judgment on me by assuming I have some personal vendetta against you. You are simply the face of MD on the forums, and I address you as such, not as an individual B.Hutch. If it was another person instead of you, I'll be addressing him or her in the same manner if they fail to provide satisfactory answers.
Second, lets examine further your statements and 34" LG drops that you did not respond to. You said, MD shipped almost all monitors before and not since 2017 because shipping has increased significantly. Perhaps, but from my experience following 34" LG monitors neither of those statements are true. The first flat 34"LG drop had international shipping which was significantly higher than the one in 2017. At the same time, curved 34" LG has never been shipped internationally, even before 2017, while the 34" flat drops were consistently offered internationally.
Sure, it does not invalidate your general statement, but you also fail to acknowledge and explain such inconsistencies. I find such incomplete disclosure quite alarming in the light of MD's general lack of transparency which sometimes lead to catastrophic errors like the one that took place on Aorus drop. Sure, it's not your fault but it is MD's fault.
