If he was only selling to the Australian market before, he could still just sell to the Australian market on a foreign site. The postage rates would still be local postage rates (but probably in euros). I've seen Chinese sellers who will only ship to the US and Australia and not China. I think that's where the international blocks would come into it.

 

I have encountered Aussie sellers on eBay US and the postage was what I would pay for a Aussie sellers on the AU site, but if I changed my location to the US, then the postage jumps to international rates. It's just listed in US $$.

As far as I know, you have to provide a domestic postage option for any site you list on. If you list on the US site, there's no way to not ship within the US, regardless of seller or item location. Some sellers I've noticed listing on the Oz site and using the regional blocks to effectively be able to list here but post to virtually nowhere within Australia, but I'm not sure if similar regional blocks are available on other sites.

Registering as a seller on another site isn't quite as simple as using a different IP address. You would need to provide a range of details and verifications, completely different and unconnected to the original person and account.
