After a bad experience selling internationally, I only sell within Australia. I've set my preference to 'no international shipment.' I had a buyer purchase today and I was surprised they were from another country. Upon checking the listing, it indeed shows sells 'worldwide.' I've checked my other listings and a few others were listed as ship worldwide also (which I quickly changed).
I'm quite certain I've set the requirement to sell within Australia only for all my items and I'm wondering if it's possible this error was caused by ebay somehow or would it have to be caused by me. I usually use the bulk relist and edit tools.
Has anyone been in a similar situation?

To cover yourself, don't list any international postage in your listings. In your buyer requirements, tick so areas you don't post to can't buy. In your postage preferences, tick all the boxes to block all countries. That should stop anyone outside Australia buying.
I don't sell overseas anymore yet a few months ago had a buyer registered in England bid. I let the auction go and he won. He'd moved to Aus but was still registered in England.
