Hi all, My wife has a large collection of fabrics that are all out of print collectables from Moda, Kaufman and others. They are used almost exclusivley in quilting and are well sort out by peoplle in the USA and CAnada moslty. We have had a lady attempt to make a purchase in canada (her actual location) but wanting it posted to a mainland USA address. All good we thought, however, we do not have paypal (And dont want it) so we have asked her to try using her prefered method as we are led to believe that the transaction will be handled via the internal Ebay system... She has tried several times to transact on the sale and each time she gets a message back stating our paypal has refused to allow the transaction... (Why) can someone tell us how we are supposed to make a sale to the USA< CAnada or Other international locations as this is just gettting silly. My wife was a massive seller to international clients for years and we never had the issues like this. Yes, our settings are all correct, yes our listings are all set up correctley too. We have also had more than one conversation with ebay help centre too. One said the issue was the buyer was not completing the sale correctly, the other said that the fabric category was the issue... something about fabric not being allowed to go from Australia to the USA Or Canada... We looked into that, seem there is no rerason that ebay should have flagged the sale on payment attempt... can someone please help with this, we are losing our minds over it... we have had to remove the listing for now to solve the issue, we have over 500 pieces that need to go up and would love to list to international buyers locations without issues like this... thanks in advance, Mike
