I can't figure out why a guy in Germany can't purchase an item I have listed. I'm sure I turned on international shipping but he can't make a purchase. What am I missing?

Canada Post strike

Just another way for the postal system to screw over Canadians. First, we have to pay through the nose for cross border shipping which makes it much more difficult to sell cheaper items. Who wants to pay $5-8 for something when it costs $10 to mail i...

Hello, I am back to selling on eBay after a long hiatus. When I did sell I sold small items so always used small priority boxes or first class. Since my items are bigger now I’m trying to save some money on shipping and use an eBay label. I just want...

Resolved! My shipment to the buyer is undeliverable & stuck with USPS

The original Virginia address had a forwarding request, but had expired. USPS tracking notes said it would be returned to sender, but that didn't happen. The customer said via a message he still wants it, but it needs to go to Colorado. I told him he...

Experience with PiggyShip?

I sell items on eBay from time to time and became aware recently of PiggyShip. It's a shipping company in El Monte, CA and their largest accounts seem to be the big Chinese vendors (Temu, AliExpress, etc.). I have received maybe a dozen packages with...
