I run into this problem quite a lot, and it's quite tricky. I auction off an item and it ends with a sale price above $750.00. It ends up being an international bidder who wins, and that means that the package will require a signature option upon shipment. The problem with this is that USPS which is the most affordable international option that I offer and that I print labels for, does not offer a signature option on international shipments. I've shipped with other carriers before to resolve the issue, but the buyer doesn't want to pay $200 more than the original quoted shipping price (and who would blame them) so I usually have to eat it. It's quite annoying that Ebay enforces this upon us, but doesn't offer labels that offer a signature option for international shipments. Is there an affordable option I'm not aware of?

I think "Registered Mail" maybe your best option. Go to the USPS site and search for Registered Mail. It is handled differently than most mail. Let me see if I can find it. Nope, I was wrong 😞 Below is the link:

How would Registered mail get you an online viewable signature?
