I have a listing with a bid from Canada.I listed the item as no international postage.I don't want to post outside Australia a it is a fragile item .A telegraphic photo lens.Will I just cancel item .It would cost a lot to send a it is heavy.I thought lisiting as no international post would cancel out it showing up on overseas sites.

If sending as an unregistered letter it is no different than snding to any address, you risk a not recieved claim. If the item has a big enough profit margin to allow for the extra cople of bucks send as a small ebay satchel for $7.15 and then you are covered to the checkout address. If the profit margin is not high enough then sell domestic only.


Sending to China IS different to sending within Australia - I've had two items not arrive in around 7 years but the risk would be a lot higher to China, therefore I have to spend my profit on extra postage to protect myself.  The lower value items they wanted would have cost an extra $5 to send them as a satchel, out of my pocket.

 

My point was that I had everything set to only sell domestically but I was forced to take the risk of posting overseas or to cancel the transaction and risk a neg.
