From August 29th the US is ending the previous de minimis exemption for goods under $800. I can imagine that some American buyers may not be aware of this or may assume it does not apply to ebay purchases.
Bearing this in mind I just wanted to check whether ebay.com / ebay.co.uk will be displaying prominent messages regarding this to US buyers buying goods from UK sellers - ideally for example banners across UK listings or messages at the bidding + buying + checkout stages?
I understand that ebay generally covers sellers if buyers refuse to pay duty but it would be better to avoid the hassle of disgruntled buyers and returned parcels if possible.
Hi wellingnorth, thanks for your question.
I believe this is something that is currently not in place, but might be added eventually. I'll pass this on, so this can be taken into consideration anyway.
Thank you,
Marco
