eBay issues

I stopped shipping international. I was doing global shipping, then people ask you to bundle multiple items since global shipping doesn’t have that option. So you need to make a new listing for them. Then complain about the additional costs for import duties their country charges (pre-tariff) and ask me to comp them.

Until Ebay figures out a way for (Global Shipping) international buyers to add multiple items from the same seller into a cart and is transparent about the imports fees I’ve opted out.

Yeah, I love the international program because if something goes wrong ebay covers the expense.

Honestly I prefer international shipping through eBay over domestic. If the buyer has any issues eBay takes care of it out of there money not yours. It’s a no brainer.

It is certainly a no brainer for the seller, but not so much for the buyer. As someone that is international (at least Canada is for now…), I never buy comics from sellers using the international program, the costs are double or triple what shipping would normally be. I’ve seen shipping as high as 45USD for a single comic. Mostly it is about 25USD.

By comparison I can get books from the UK, across the pond for much less. This is pretty typical:

I can say I buy most books from UK if I’m buying international, not the US. Just something to keep in mind if you are expecting a giant rush of customers. It may be different for outside of North America where the prices are somewhat equal.

I see the shipping costs on both sides, which stops me from buying.
