I dont ship internationally either..and It is
very clearly marked on all auctions..mostly
because of my very first auction
Once upon a time I had no idea how to ship
anything to anywhere but japan..or canada and I
didn't want to get myself into trouble..so I
made sure it said US and canada only
The first auction was won by a very nice girl
who lived in italy and she was just wild about
the cels..They didn't get but 10.00 total. She
says she lives in italy but she really loves
those cels they are her favorite characters in
the whole world and she would love to own them.
I go to mail the cels and the shipping cost is
28.00 at the cheapest rate.
I email and explain that the cels shipping is
very expensive and how much it was. She was so
very disappointed and asked if I could find a
cheaper rate. There wasn't a cheaper rate that I
could find and I really looked. She said she
would send eight dollars shipping.
Im an idiot, because she really liked those
cels, you know...and even though I said I wasn't
going to ship internationally, I agreed to let
her pay 8.00 shipping. (completely my own fault)
and I payed the other 20.00 because there
really wasnt a cheaper rate out there.
so I paid someone to get my cels.. and
considering I paid 10.00 a cel originally...and
paid 60 cents for the auction listing and then
only won 10.00 total, I basically bought them
all over again to send them out.
so now its very clearly marked that I will not
ship internationally, it has nothing to do with
not trusting foriegn buyers but everything to do
with the fact that I really just dont want the
hassle.
Im sorry about that though I completely
understand your frustration...
