Unfortunately, this item isn’t available for purchase in your location

I'm trying to buy 2 of thise (item 166052947286) but every time I get Unfortunately, this item isn’t available for purchase in your location.

 

The listing says international shipping and Denmark is included.

 

Hope someone can help me.

Re: Unfortunately, this item isn’t available for purchase in your location

Is your shipping address a post office box?  The eBay International Shipping system doesn’t support shipments to post office boxes.

 

Even if your address isn’t a post office box, the AI scanning your address may not know Danish very well and may be misinterpreting something in your address.  🤪

The item is probably either prohibited or restricted to be shipped to Denmark.

eIS would likely have added Denmark to the excluded countries list in the shipping section if that were the case, @bonanza125.   I think this is more an issue with the OP's shipping address.

 

@d.a.s.1102, if you're still following this thread, have you tried looking up and purchasing the item through a European eBay site (such as eBay Eire/Ireland) rather than the US site?

@marnotom! 

 

Not necessarily.

This message has popped up for US buyers using PO boxes and trying to purchase from US sellers who don't ship to PO boxes, though, @bonanza125.

 

And there have been posts from non-US buyers as well as sellers using eIS who have found that specific countries don't appear on the "ships to" list generated by eIS, so I would think that if there's something problematic about the item, Denmark would have been eliminated from that "ships to" list and added to the exclusion list in a manner similar to those listings.

For what it's worth, I tried purchasing the item that the OP posted using a PO box for my Canadian address at Checkout and I received the same message.  I didn't get that message when I used my home address, also in Canada.

Re: Unfortunately, this item isn’t available for purchase in your location

I also live in Denmark and started receiving these Errors at Checkout.

 

Funnily enough Aliexpress did the same stupid think a Month ago or so :/.

 

Sorry to say, but this is just sheer stupid: the Error Message MUST be specific and not be linked to 100 Possible Causes.

 

- I have the Address correctly set to "Denmark"

- The Seller lists "Denmark" as a Shipping Destination & eBay International Shipping is present

- Paypal is correctly linked (well, unless either eBay or Paypal completely messed up)

 

The only Issue that comes to Mind is that my eBay Email Address does NOT match my Paypal Address. Not sure if this is the Issue, it wasn't an Issue until now at least.

 

As for why this is the Case, it's simply because it's a eBay / Paypal "Feature" that you cannot change the Country of your existing Account. And since I moved to Denmark a few Years ago, I had to use another Email Address for Paypal ...

Uh in the Account Page it now seems we need to provide our CPR Number to make a Purchase.

Like ... What the HELL ?

Your item is a helium filled hard drive and USPS prohibits all gases in the International mail.

The issue in this case is not the shipping location but the fact that this particular item cannot be shipped internationally.

Re: Unfortunately, this item isn’t available for purchase in your location

I have the same problem. Have bought NECA action figures from eBay US for 6 years, but now It says it can’t ship to Denmark, I can buy all other stuff from US but not action figures.

is there some new import export rules between usa and Denmark?

Re: Unfortunately, this item isn’t available for purchase in your location

Yeah, i've been hitting a brick too when it comes to ordering toys to Denmark (espeically from US) Ebay said it was something about our import thingie but i can't find anything about it having changed the last year

 

And it all started slowly around november but it is like everything now

Re: Unfortunately, this item isn’t available for purchase in your location

I'm having this issue too. 
I'm trying to buy some Monster High dolls that aren't available in Denmark, from US sellers and I keep getting this error when I go to buy.
I also noticed, that a lot of dolls I have on my watchlist no longer come up when I search for them, eventhough I can see that they still are for sale through the watchlist, and all of them give me the "Unfortunately, this item isn’t available for purchase in your location" if I try to buy them.

 

I also tried to go back and try this listing; https://www.ebay.com/itm/176645767691?var=476391750483

Which I bought a doll from in december, and I can no longer buy any of them. Same error.

 

It goes without saying that all of these say that they ship to denmark, it even gives me a shipping estimate when I look at them.

Re: Unfortunately, this item isn’t available for purchase in your location

I'm getting this error on two small cardboard based board games in shrink-wrapped boxes.

 

Also located in Denmark, and shipping to Denmark is mentioned in the "Ships To" list.

 

Sux a little, tbh.
