If I post an item on eBay Australia for free, is it still visible to international sellers?

As the title states, 

I am selling items through eBay Australia and am getting free listings under my quota for the month, but all my watchers and bidders were also from Australia. So I was just wondering can international sellers see my listing, cause I want the best opportunity for people to see my products.

Hope to hear from some one soon.

Kind Regards,

Yes it is.Just like overseas sellers items are visible to you by including "worldwide" in your search.

Overseas buyers will only be able to see your items while logged into their own sites if you quote international postage in the postage section..

 

Reading your finished listing I gather you are very new to selling so I would stick to Aus only until you have done a lot of reading about the overseas selling rules.

 

this makes no sense

 

I Prefer Paypal, but if you have no other option, but bank transfer, I know the feeling and should be able to rearrange the description for you to get my details; if necessary. 
 
If you are happy to accept bank deposit just tick it as an accepted payment method and preferably tick the box to provide your bank details in checkout so buyers don't have to wait to email you before they can pay.

gayle, on the one card I saw you sold this week, you stated Sells to Australia only (you did not choose sells worldwide when listing)

you did not offer interntional postage in the postage section (mentioning it in the description does not make it visible in usa). you need to tick the correct postage box (if you are sure you know about interntional selling and the rules and regulations in other countries).

 

you only offered paypal, as phorum junkie has said if you want to offer bank deposit you need to tick that box on the listing page AND you can add your bank bsb and a/c number in the appropriate boxes so that if buyers want they can pick that option.

 

until you are a bit more experienced with selling you may be better off just concentrating on building up your confidence selling within australia, and learning about paypal / seller and buyer protection etc....

 

goodluck
