Checout error, state excluded

Today someone trying to buy one of my bin listings tells me that at checkout Ebay tells him  it won't ship to his state. (AR)

I checked my listing, I am not excluding any state ( not sure that's possible anyway). Then I go to the "calculate shipping" on my listing and it won't calculate ANY zip code for me. 

It a taxidermy item, (deer antlers) but afaik it is legal to sell.

I'm thinking it is a glitch and will go away but do I need to let ebay know? I think the only way to contact ebay though is to call, am I righjt?

Do the box dimensions exceed the limits for the shipping service you chose?

You might want to check the rules for such things in that state. I have seen listings for plants that could not be shipped to certain states. Your antlers may be a can't buy/sell/trade item in AR without some sort of license.

I don't know what the reason may be...........shipping won't calculate on yours........says to enter a proper zip code.........yet virtually the same item from another seller  shows shipping for me, so I don't think it's legal/illegal problem...........  are you sure the shipping is setup correctly??

Yes, I had thought of that, but would ebay be keeping track of that and step in to block the sale? Anyway I did google it and found a fairly recent Arkansas statute that allows deer antlers. And also I can't get the calculate shipping to work on my listing. I will check all my listings now and see.

On mobile it shows contact seller for shipping quote.

Everyone has options. Just be sure the best option is right for you.

Curiouser and curiouser.  I set up shipping the same as all my listings.
