It's making dealing with US ebay sellers impossible. There is no logical explanation for this unprecedented intervention to trade.
Hi, there is solution that works most all of the time. Many sellers are more than happy to change or rather re-list the item to normal post USPS etc. for the US and the equivalent for the UK. I have had great success, Also many sellers have no idea that GSP has attached itself to their auctions. One seller I dealt with had around half of his stuff with GSP and about half of the other via USPS. No spring chicken either, he had no idea what GSP was. Bit of a risk losing out on that desired item though as by the time seller gets back to you with a "Yes I can" or has decided to re-list, another keen-eyed punter can come in and snap up that desired item. A few keen collectors that I know are now doing their trawling late at night so they can catch the seller when they're awake.
Hey, I feel your frustration though! Best wishes with getting what you desire.
