quarantine rules...Soooo freaking frustrating that eBay won't let us ban postcodes

[i-wetmyplants]

Ok....got some of my fruit trees in a new store now and its starting all over again...Still getting buyers from TASMANIA and WA in BOTH plant stores. even though I have it clearly explained in my listing the cosequenses...Noooooo, I cant put warning it in the title as I need that space for KEY words...EBAY MUST LET PLANT SELLERS BAN post codes starting with 6 and 7.Not just countries!!!...Such a waste of time trying to refund etc without defects , penalties or whateve eBay are doing to sellers who cancel and refund orders.....etc...Thats it!..Im going shopping...

Move it to the top of your Description in big red letters

CANNOT SEND TO TAS OR WA

i thought ebay did let you ban postcodes...

try this link... http://pages.ebay.com.au/help/pay/shipping-costs.html#where

Maybe use the Postage rate tables and add a surcharge for quarantine:

http://frame.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ShippingRateTable

Or you can access them by going to your My eBay > Account > Site Preferences > Postage preferences and then

scroll down to : Use postage rate tables and click on Edit on the far right.

Or you can make it the cost high so they wont buy.

I've never used them so don't know how it works,

Just  change the colour via the palette by going to the arrow next to the A ,(next to Font size )

It will then change the colour.

For larger lettering change the font size and then click on the B to make it appear

"thicker"

I do my listings via Turbo Lister and change the colours in Description builder,(you can do the same

thing there)

Just curious, because I have seen it mentioned in LOTS of listings over the years, why can't you post to WA or Tas? I'm assuming it's a quarantine issue, but what sort of quarantine issue?

Sorry to go off topic 🙂
