International listings/shipping not working

I took a few months off and when I came back global shipping is gone and now there's international shipping. Everything on my listings and settings appear to be correct for this new option yet I haven't gotten a single international buyer. Usually about half of my buyers are international because of the specific items I'm selling. 

All I got from ebay chat was links to correct my listings. (They are already exactly as you tell me they should be!)

Please help.

Re: International listings/shipping not working

Just because you haven't got any International orders, doesn't mean it isn't working.

Looking at one of your listings, you only ship to the US.

Have a great day.

Because in the listing form, you have the items set up to ship to the US only.

Please then @inceptions @kensgiftshop  explain this instruction from eBay? I am confused.

You might want to check all your listings.

I did find one like that, but the few others I checked only showed US shipping.

Have a great day.

Re: International listings/shipping not working

I don't use eBay International Shipping, so I don't have live experience with it, but this is what I see on the  listings that I looked at:

Re: International listings/shipping not working

I found only 3 listings that included international shipping to UK. The remainder were not visible to my UK address, which means the international option was not applied. Since you are using shipping policies, it appears you may need to modify your music policy the same way you updated your toys policy below.
