Well my auction ended, and they didn't win, but I would still like to send him some sort of email. If anyone wants to email this person themselves, I could provide you with thier email address and see what happesn.
 
Just write something like.

Dear Sir,
I real sorry you no win auction. I no can ship to Indonesia so if you won you not get it anyway. Oh well.
 
I had the same type of email when i sold my laptop on ebay. And guess what, it was from Indonesia too! And the idiot decided to send me nearly the same email, but from a different email address!
 
Just tell him ok and have him buy them via Paypal (credit card). Then wait 2 weeks or so to ship to him.
 
Just say that it's an extreme pain in the ass, that there are distributors local to you, and because there are plenty of potential customers in the US, you do not ship to Indonesia.

Or simply state that you require payment in full, via wire tranfer, before you will ship.
