Charged an International fee for shipping to Miami.

[tweetystwades]

Has this happened to anyone else? I shipped a package to Miami and noticed I was charged an International Fee.

The address looks like it might be an outside shipper, but in the past that didn't matter. I called Ebay to ask why, and they said because the buyer is based in Jamaica. That should not matter, I shipped to Miami.

Can someone please shed some light on this.

Same thing just happened to me.  Buyer was Registered in Canada but shipped to a U.S. home address.  I was charged a International Fee of $25.08.

  I called Ebay and they would not credit my account.  They said I need to work that out with the buyer before they buy the item.  Not sure how that is even possible...   This is the first time I have noticed a International fee.  I usually don't check my fee's (better to not know how bad your getting screwed).   I just wonder how many times this has happened to me and I have not known.

Thanks for nothing ebay

I called for the same thing, but no refund for me 😞

Hopefully, EBAY didn't charge the buyer state tax, since YOU will have to pay commission on that state tax on top of the international fee.

I just got charged an international fee on 2 separate orders.  Both orders are being shipped to the USA, but the buyers registered addresses are China and South Korea, respectively.  This is something I wasn't aware of.  I just found this out, by chance, when checking on my top rated seller discounts.  I wonder how many more transactions this happened to.  I don't ship International.  Anyone else just found this out?
