    Sweden is a high risk country?

    Items can’t be listed in this high-risk category, as these products may pose a risk to the eBay community. For more information, see our High-Risk Category Policy. If you want to request approval to list in high-risk categories, email hisappeals@ebay.com.{e26967

    Sent 3 emails to hisappeals@ebay.com and got 0 replies

    Why is Sweden listed with banned countries that are terrorist states, dictators and third world countries???
    What happened?

    btw "high risk category" is a vintage graphics card
    I even set it to world wide free shipping as the international mail calculator is so broken lol

    Was planning to sell this card and then another with mobo, cpu, ram for people who like to build retro gaming pc, but I guess those would be high risk as well?
    What about Magic the gathering cards, that high risk as well?
    Why is ebay not answering on the email they say you should mail to get on the excluded list?
    Is there a direct email to someone at ebay that you can talk to?

    People are stripping the die from the new GPU's and selling the blank circuit boards. Not sure if you were trying to list one of the new ones but either way, you have no items listed. Not to mention, the computing required for artificial intelligence requires numerous GPU's, so it would make sense that eBay have a mechanism in place that mitigates the possibility they end up in a sanctioned region. Sweden has nothing to do with this.

    You have only sold one item.  You are a risk to the eBay community because of this alone.  The transaction has a bigger chance of having issues.  You may get scammed and or the buyer may get scammed and or eBay may get scammed.   As a 'new' seller with little experience some buyers may try to take advantage of you.

    It's not necessarily that Sweden is the high risk.  It may be that Sweden sees that item, coming from the U.S., as high risk.

     

    It's not always about us.  Sometimes other countries don't want our stuff.

    Graphic card are high risk and there's a good chance you'll loose the card and won't get any money.
