just another way as a seller we get screwed without notice and no way to protect yourself (except to charge more for your items “just in case” buyer uses foreign bank acct / credit card / funds.
noticed a few bucks missing from most of my last few sales. Each time it turns out the buyers (allegedly - have to trust ebay, who always has zero accountability and even less morals, decency, or HONOR - WHAT SO EVER) all used foreign funds/accounts. That somehow became my problem and expenze now - even when i dont ship or sell to buyers outside the US.
ON TOP OF paying ebay 12% of the buyers tax ! Which i never see or touch, but somehow i pay a 12% commission on !! As if i profited from it, hell i didnt even get to collect it !!
on top of the 12% i already pay in commission fees on SHIPPING COSTS !!
Unreal ... soon ill owe ebay money for items i sell, i may just forego the item sales and just send ebay money directly every week
was a great ride while it lasted... now a low value / hi risk / low reward waste of time ...awful

I bet the address had a bunch of funny numbers in it. That was going to a freight forwarder to be shipped to another country. It is worth the small percentage because even if the item arrives smashed into pieces it isn't your problem and you win the case automaticaly (items shipped to another address after delivery are not covered by ebay moneyback guarantee)

It is worth 1% fee to have no eBay moneyback guarantee whatsoever.
