Bid blocked by a popup notice

I'm trying to bid on several items in the UK but when I go to put on a bid the following notice pops up and blocks my bid. the notice is: Items cannot be shipped to certain destinations using the Global Shipping Program for several reasons, including remoteness and difficulty of reaching the destination. It appears that the address you have chosen is a destination that the Global Shipping Program is unable to service. Items cannot be shipped to certain destinations using the Global Shipping Program for several reasons, including remoteness and difficulty of reaching the destination.

You would need to contact the seller of those items and inform them of the message you are receiving when you try and bid on their items.

eBay count some ' remote' places in the UK  for example  Highlands and Islands , where some couriers will charge for extra postage.  Some sellers do not realise that Royal Mail charges are the same for all of the UK, and so they may block those ' remote' places,  as ones they do not wish to post to. 

Perhaps they can list the item with Royal Mail if this is the issue , or place you in their exemption list in their Site Preferences.

Hopefully,  that will help.

You're in New Zealand.

That message is just letting you know that the item can't be shipped to your address if it's correct, there isn't anything further you can do there. You can ask the seller if they'd consider bypassing the GSP and shipping direct, but I feel that they're unlikely to.
