Re: What are your thoughts on International shipping? (Tue Nov 12 13:22:44 2002 )

This really is a pain...

Some people don't understand that postage from 
some countries are very expensive. I'm in London 
now, and if I try to sell something to Hong Kong, 
I'm pretty sure they'll be feeling suspicious for 
my postage charges too. I guess the best thing to 
do is give estimated prices for shipping on your 
auction page to main continents and countries 
such as US, Europe, Asia. That way, they can't 
accuse you of cheating. (once I ended up giving 
the buyer a link to the PO rates table, told him 
the weight and asked him to work it out for 
himself to prove that I wasn't cheating)

I hate the way that this sort of customers 
discourage sellers from international auctions 
>_< Only every now and then I manage to persuade 
a US seller to ship to UK, and I'm pretty sure 
it's mostly because of bad experiences.

Also, if someone backs out of an auction because 
of shipping charges, it's a perfectly good reason 
to let eBay know - not only to get your fees 
back, but also this person may have done it 
before/ will do the same again on other sellers. 
So don't let them go lightly!
