    Troubles in Selling Overseas

    Back on March 8th of this year, I received a spontaneous email from eBay automatically enrolling me in eBay International Shipping (eIS).  Pretty much simultaneously, my lots were appearing on worldwide eBay sites!  This was important, because my material is mostly of interest to foreign Buyers.  But although my auction starting-bid levels were low, I learned from foreign Buyers that the fees being charged to them were prohibitively high, so I opted out of eIS.  It then became unclear to the foreign Buyers what shipping they would be paying, so I completed no foreign (outside USA) until late June, when I went on a trip.  Returning in mid-July, I found that two things had changed: (1) my main Business Policy had been altered (inconsistency message when submitting), so adjusted that - and (2) my lots were not showing up any more on non-US databases.  Have double-checked the country-exclusion settings, and they seem unchanged.

    So my question is pretty obvious: how do I regain ability to list internationally, and how should I act to prevent future relapses in this international access?  Thanks in advance for any insights!
