Non payment and cancelled orders from outside the us
I’m not sure if this is a new thing or not but I’ve sold a product 3 times to someone outside of the us and never received payment. The last guy gave me an excuse and I just cancelled it before he could. He’s located in South Korea but the shipping address is California? Is this a new thing? I receiver an offer on another item I’m selling from South Korea as well and I’ve NEVER received any offers from outside the country.
i don’t think it’s a scam I think it’s eBay once again not doing their due diligence

As a new seller, you are behind the learning curve. That’s okay, it takes time to learn the ropes. However , I would caution you to be most careful in regards to cancelling a transaction prior to a buyer’s request that you do so. Or until 4 days are passed without payment. Seller-initiated transaction cancellations can be a cardinal sin on eBay. Cancelling can get you penalized. It is not unheard of for new members to lose their selling privileges unexpectedly by inadvertently violating critical policies.

Many buyers are overseas but have domestic mailing addresses. The actual address you are shipping the product to is revealed when payment is rendered.
