OK, so I've got some stuff on ebay. No big deal.
Except that I hate shipping international, unless it's someone that I "know," like TheLongestDay. On top of it costing way more, I can't track the item so I don't know if it's getting where it's supposed to, their addresses are all weird and it's just a huge pain in the ass. So in all of my auctions it says: I don't ship outside of the lower 48 United States. Very plain and easy to understand, right? SO WHY DO PEOPLE FROM OUTSIDE OF THE LOWER 48 KEEP BIDDING AND WINNING ON MY ITEMS?!?!?!?! I suppose that I should be happy that they're selling, right? But it's the principal of the matter. I say outright that I don't want to do it, and people just ignore it. Currently, one Argentinian is winning 3 of my auctions, including a GIANT 28 figure McFarlane lot. I don't want to know how much it's going to cost to ship to him... I'm very irritated. End rant. Last edited by xSwamiJayx; 06-30-2010 at 11:31 PM.. |

So change your settings to US only and cancel the bids. Unless you ship them International Priority you run the risk of losing the item AND the money.

well you need to tell these people that they are responcible for whatever shipping will be and that your not gonna be responcible for the items unless they want to pay the $35 for tracking. or whatever it cost.you can even remove their bids cuz they arent in the lower 48 states. so you are covered. so therefor they cant leave you negative feedback cuz of it.

It's one of those stupid things. Like, if they contacted me first so I could say, "If you want to pay the extra shipping cost, bid away," that would be one thing. But that NEVER happens.

It cost me $37 to ship something to France. I'm lucky I was able to get everything weighed at the Post Office and get the actualy shipping cost before sending an invoice.
Maybe you need to note on your auction that shipping overseas is a flat $250. That would discourage international bidders. |
