Hello, guys.
I live in Venezuela, it is the main address of my account but I am planning to buy some items, store them in a warehouse in the United States, then every time I have a sale, ship them from that warehouse to improve the user experience and shipping times.
I can change in the listing the address where I ship the products from but I wanted to know if it is allowed to ship from a different place to the address where I live.
Thanks in advance.

eBay secretly hides where the seller lives, buried right up top on the feedback page, i.e. distracted by additional finger pokes at the screen.
But the item location is promiscuously display on the listing, and "item location" likely indicates the "location" of the "item", e.g. at your warehouse in US.

As far as i know, it doesn't matter where YOU are located.
As long as your items are being shipped from Anytown, USA you may indicate on your listings that they are shipped from Anytown, USA.

Yes, that's OK. Many sellers do that.

That is OK. Keep in mind that you also have to have a return strategy where the items can be returned to a USA location with a shipping cost similar to the original costs ... alternatively, you can (a) plan to refund without requiring a return, or (b) provide shipping labels/money to have them return the item internationally.
