I had an auction on Ebay that just ended, that specifically said that I DO NOT ship outside the United States. Then someone from Malaysia asked me how much to ship there... I replied that don't ship outside the United States and posted the Question & Answer on the auction so everyone could see... Now there are 2 different spots on the auction that says that I DON'T...

Last second of the auction, someone from Malaysia bids and wins the auction. The only reason I don't ship outside the U.S. is because I never have and don't know how it works and I've heard horror stories...

Is shipping to Malaysia much different than shipping within the U.S. I know there will be a different shipping label and I guess insurance, not to mention cost of shipping... What I want to know is, is it easy enough to ship to Malaysia and I should just go ahead and send the invoice to him with a new shipping cost or should I contact Ebay Support and cancel it out and give a 2nd chance to the bidder below him...

What are your thoughts and suggestions? I need answers ASAP Thanx!

Honestly, if you made it clear you don't ship internationally, I'd say go through eBay to cancel it.

To tell you the truth its only really going to amount to more paper work for you.

LOL! Your reply is a bit late =)

Yeah I figured that out at the post office when I was trying to mail it... Don't believe I will do it anymore... this guy better know how damn lucky he is I decided to mail my Shattered Glass figures to him... never again cause I got screwed on shipping costs!

Sorry I was late.

But you should have up charged him for the shipping.

Oh I did... the auction was for $12.99 shipping and I charged him $27.99 based on the postal calculator... went to mail it and it ended up being $37.00 to ship =(

Then I would have emailed him back and told him he needed to send an other $10.bucks for the shipping before I sent it.

I once had the same exact thing happaned to me with a buyer from Malaysia as well.

I originally charged $25. but when I got to the post office I found out shipping was closer to $40.

So I went back home and emailed him telling he had to send more or I would cancel the deal.
