Hello Everyone,
I hope you are all keeping well.
At the moment I manage all of the international postage myself.
I wondered if anyone might know if it is possible to opt in to the Global Shipping program just for parcels going to the rest of Europe and then I still manage and send the parcels to the rest of the World myself so to speak ?, hope that makes sense.
Thanks for all your help, much appreciated.
Mark.

I don't know much about GSP. I don't think there is that option exactly.
But if you turn on GSP for an item, you can set your own pricing for the countries/regions below (well this is what it shows me), which would mean they use these prices rather than GSP (I don't know what happens if your prices are higher than GSP.) In this list (shown to me), there's no options e.g. for Africa - so they would also use GSP.
I've not tried but possibly using Postage Rates might give you the option to define prices for more countries than the below - presumably you would not specify prices for Europe and let those go GSP.

There is an option in the GSP preferences for "customize international shipping for some locations"
On the help it states: "Offer alternate international shipping services to buyers in some locations. You'll see the eligible locations when you create a listing."
So if you have the option ticked, then you should be able to amend locations from the listing itself.
Really no idea how this works though as I just use GSP for everything.
Too much hassle to do it myself.
