Global shipping
I have my items listed for domestic shipping only. I just received a request from someone in Japan to purchase an item. How is this person seeing my items when I'm not part of global shipping? Is this a scam?

·2 years agoIf we're talking about the $400 jacket, you do indeed offer shipping to Japan via eBay International Shipping. You're not shipping it internationally yourself, however; you just ship it to an eBay consolidation center within the U.S. (the address will appear with the payment), and eBay takes it the rest of the way. Your delivery obligation is done as soon as it reaches the eBay center, not all the way to Japan.

·2 years agoAnyone in the world can "see" your items. They just cannot see the shipping to their country as you do not offer it. I would reconsider your take on not shipping items overseas. I do a lot and never have issues....especially to Japan. Asian countries are the least "scamming" people on Earth from what I have found and are some of my best customers.

·2 years agoI just looked at your listing and several of them show that you ship "world wide". You might want to review your listings and change to USA only (if that is your preference).

·2 years agoThere are many eBay buyers who use eBay's International Shipping.
Their delivery address will be in the US, most in Chicago, but believe there's a West Coast address too.
The seller ships to that address. The EIS service takes care of the rest.
The seller's responsibility ends when the item arrives at the EIS center.
No, it is not a scam.

·2 years agoFreight forwarders website allows international customers to purchase your items. You ship to freight forwarder in the USA and they forward overseas. I never had a problem with customer that used freight forwarder.
