See that doesnt make sense to me. Sorry in my mind your money is as good as someone from anyother country. Its all green to me bud. Maybe they get frustrated because they dont understand why you don't want to make a "to them" simple transaction where they want something and you want the other. Yet for some reason one person says ....no. Strange thinking imo
Is this a response to my comments or Tombstone? Unless it expired in the last month, you don't have a gold account to sell here. It is easy for the recipient of international shipping. Ordering is easy. And PayPal has the buyer covered if the tracking doesn't show delivery. Most international buyers have never lived in the US and shipped international.
I have both bought and sold to/from international locations for a long time. I never take it seriously when someone tells me how easy it is. Most buyers haven't put much thought into international shipping other than they see something and they want it.
Most don't think about managing risk. In my experience, most buyers want the cheapest shipping with no insurance and want the seller to assume all risk. They're covered by PayPal. The seller isn't covered.
Everyone's circumstances are different. There are all sorts of considerations like whether the person owns a printer and whether they can ship by their preferred method and or location. For example, I prefer to ship at my grocery store and they don't take international packages. Those need to go to the post office and that's further away and only open during work lunch/hours.
The best way to get someone to ship international is to private message with the all of the details already worked out. If someone with a paid membership and good feedback is willing to pay for a secure shipping method and has all of the details worked out in advance, that's going to be a lot more likely to work out well.
But don't be disappointed if they say no. Situations are different for different people. I know a vet who is wheel chair bound and has been yelled at for not shipping international. The buyers don't know. They just want stuff. If you can't drive and don't have a printer, it's not as easy as you may think to ship international.
