I am a UK private seller posting to UK, USA, Canada and Australia. I used to get a lot of orders from USA but no longer get any. As far as I remember, my listings used to appear automatically on USA & Canada as long as my delivery details included postage to these countries.
I've just seen, when creating a new listing via the desktop site, a box to tick if I want it to appear on USA/Canada ebay. There's only a small charge so I ticked it.
However... the box doesn't appear on all the new listings I'm creating.
Anyone know why not, please?
Thank you!

There are issues with selling to the States because of the US tariffs .
This was their recent Announcement.
Starting 3 April 2025, new US Customs policy will impact shipments from the UK to US buyers. US customers will now be responsible for additional duties on most orders over $800, and they may need to provide further tax information for customs clearance. This could result in shipment delays due to US Customs processing. To address these changes, we are actively updating Estimated Delivery Dates to offer better arrival estimates.

Thank you very much for your reply and I'll keep an eye on that page. It doesn't specifically answer my query, especially as my items are vintage and are, pretty much, all under £22. But it explains why, if US customers can see my listings, they're reluctant to order anything from the UK!
