International shipping
Shipping internationally. I chose the 1.55 global stamp and when someone bought the card it then charged me an additional $13 for shipping. Not sure why that is. Is it extra taxes by that country?

Mentor2 years ago@nickmo36 The global stamp is a postage stamp that you buy at the post office and not a tracked shipping method. You can only but tracked shipping on eBay. Without tracking you will have no proof of delivery.
What is the item number of the sold listing? And what country are you shipping to?

Mentor2 years ago@nickmo36 The item shows it sold on Dec 20th.
This means you were planning on shipping with a postage stamp at the post office. It sounds like you bought a first class package label from eBay instead.
I was confused about your shipping method since your more recent sold listings show that they are using eBay International Shipping. Note you can NOT combine eBay International Shipping and eBay Standard Envelope for trading cards.
For example you are going to have a problem if an international buyer purchases this card>

My advice is to use Business Policies for shipping and apply them to the listings that can not be shipped international. OR OPT OUT of the eBay International Shipping program so NOTHING ships international. Let me know if you need instructions for both. I'll be back online tomorrow.
OPT out of EIS as at the top of this page> https://www.ebay.com/ship/prf

OP2 years agoI am trying to wrap my head around this. I think my prob is I can only see so much on my phone compared to a computer. I don’t have a computer at the moment.
I would eventually like to ship internationally. I don’t see any options when I list an item if I would like it just domestic or international.

Mentor2 years ago@nickmo36 If you don't have access to a computer then I recommend just not shipping international right now OR you are going to have to cancel sales to buyers in other countries for your low cost cards OR lose money shipping to the EIS center with ground advantage shipping, those are your two options.
The way to opt out is to select OPT out at the top of this linked page>
