Selling Abroad

[sierra_stone]

Hi, before I go through the long winded 'contact e-bay' procedure, I was wondering whether anyone could help me with my problem at all.

I sell and ship to UK customers only - I did not enrol for the global shipping programme - my listings all confirm I ship to the UK and not overseas.

Yet - I continue to get overseas purchases!  This is so frustrating. 

Is there any way round this at all does anyone know?

Thanks in advance, kind regards, Sue

Do you have a list of countries that you don't post to ?

Then set your buyer preferences to block bids/purchases from countries which you don't post to. Other things worth blocking too.

It won't stop the most detrmined buyer because the block works on the bidders primary postal address.  So a buyer could set that with a UK address and then try and then try and switch it.
