Hello,

I'm trying to post a sell listing but after setting the shipping option to worldwide after I click the preview listing it says ships to : United States only?

shipping settings : http://imgbox.com/MDCMRupv

listing preview: http://imgbox.com/lJWmstvw

Could anyone clear this to me? 🙂

Thx.

To sell internationally, you need to:

Have an eBay account in good standing.
Have a PayPal account and be PayPal Verified.
Have at least 10 Feedback points earned as a seller.
Have had your first successful sale more than 90 days ago.
Meet the selling requirements of the sites where you want your listings to appear.

Uhmm, I've already sold a watch once and indeed it went to the US but I'm pretty sure it had wordwide shipping available, hmm...

This is most likely true. It is a good idea to get used to selling and get your feet wet, so to speak, by just shipping to the US. Ebay doesn't want you to bite off more than you can chew, so they do this for both your protection and your buyer's.

You need to establish a pattern of successful transactions before you branch out. Have you researched selling internationally? Do you know what can happen? Do you know what you are responsible for? Are you familiar with buyer protection policies? Do you know which countries it is safe to ship to, and which may not be a good idea to ship to? Do you know how to set up the countries you ship to and those you don't?

Sorry for so many questions but shipping internationally, as with selling on Ebay, is something you need to be very familiar with. You also need to know the basic rules of this site regarding listing and selling.

There is a selling tutorial that you can take. There is a wealth of info in the Help pages and this Board.

Good Luck to you!
