    sending international?

    Is sending international a big deal for you guys in america?

    Coz this morning alone, i've had 2 people tell me they cant send outside of america...

    Now in australia, there is really no difference (except a small cost increase) in sending Domestic as opposed to International, its just a different stamp to buy, so why is it that a lot (yes i've encountered it a lot - more on ebay than here) of americans wont send overseas??

    i've never had a problem sending overseas...in fact i've traded numerous times with people in Australia as well....most people here, i would imagine, are afraid that there packages will be tampered with or lost in customs of other countries and don't want to take the risk

    what i normally do if i'm sending a valuable package overseas is to use registered mail....it takes a little longer for the item to arrived, but it's the safest way to send

    i've never had a problem with shipping internationally. But i know what you're talking about, i've had numerous potential deals get turned down just because i lived in CANADA. I mean if some guy from Canada goes to you and tells you that he wants to buy your rare card for 10 times the book value, will you say 'no, i won't sell a $100 card for $1000 to you because you live in Canada'. Some people are just lazy and tries to avoid as much hassle as possible, even though sending cards internationally is as easy as shipping them domestically.
