selling items internationally

[2007vera]

HI,

I have recently listed 3 items ( first time seller) I particularly wanted my items to be available on uk ebay.

I have stated I will post worldwide and have created postage options for worldwide.

My listings are showing up on ebay Aust,  -( posting options indicate worldwide delivery) - but not ebay uk - even when I select  the worldwide option ( as opposed to uk only)

I did a search on ebay uk using both my seller name and also title and got no hit, so they are definitely not showing.

What did I do wrong?

Many thanks for your help

You might want to verify this with Customer Support (top-right of this page) but I'm pretty sure that you'll need to have been an established seller for at least 90 days and have positive feedback from at least 10 sales before you'll be allowed to list internationally.

It would be the lack of feedback for selling, seems you are required to have some ebay selling experience (not just buying) before your items can be displayed on international ebay sites?

thanks.

Would be really good if it actually said that somewhere - such as when the tab asks if you'd like to post overseas.

I have asked customer support - 36  hours ago - but they haven't got back to me yet.

I think I will cancel the listings and list on the uk website - I am certain they will sell much better there.

Many thanks for your help - I was absolutely cluelss as to what was wrong.

Rowena, if you can list on the U.K. site when you are registered in Australia and have no selling feedback, you would need to make it very clear on the listings that the items will be posted from Australia.

"You might want to verify this with Customer Support (top-right of this page) but I'm pretty sure that you'll need to have been an established seller for at least 90 days and have positive feedback from at least 10 sales before you'll be allowed to list internationally"

That rule applies on the US site but not on the AU site.

The only requirement that the AU site used to have is that sellers with under 5 feedback ( for buying or selling) couldn't list as a Fixed Price/ BIN or with a Buy It now option to sell internationally. They could list in an auction format only.

After doing a fixed price  test listing with a 0 feedback ID, even that requirement doesn't seem to apply anymore.
