items not allowed to be shipped overseas

Hi all,

 

I have recently listed a dog flea comb. yes, a comb. ebay have stated that flea products cannot be shipped overseas. I have contacted ebay support, and even though it is only a comb with no chemicals, the rep stated that I cannot ship it overseas.

 

Once again, no common sense provided by Ebay.....

just change the wording to pet comb for removing fleas, or similar. Sometimes you just have to play their game.

A comb can be a deadly weapon.

 

 

No seriously, I am guessing they think it contains chemicals. Otherwise no logic to it.

Nothing like a Brylcreem combover!!!

 

Aust Post site has a list of what can and can't be sent overseas. Maybe instead of calling it a flea removing comb, you could reword it along the lines of 'removes biting parasites'. Or at the very least mention that it contains no chemicals.

I am really wondering if it is worth changing anything other than to say you only ship to Australia, would an overseas buyer honestly pay the delivery charge to buy a flea comb from Australia?
