I have an auction on E-bay. auction I only want to ship to North America, once burned twice shy. Well anyway, note large red letters that are strung in a sentence. So far I have gotten 8 e-mails, Pardon, but how much for you to ship to China/Czech Rep/Greece/Hong Kong and so on. Cannot people read or does that sentence only apply to other people and not them. Thank you for reading this, I do feel a bit better. Mike |

On a related note, when I was in 7th grade, we had team cooking projects in Home Ec class. We were following a written recipe, when this one kid I didn't know well kept pestering on what the next step in the process was. Finally, I exclaimed "Just follow the instructions! Can't you read?" I found out later he couldn't… Damon. |

I've asked a couple of times when sellers have put up that they only sell to US or UK (and it was something hard to find that I really wanted), and sometimes they've found it ok to ship it here, sometimes not.
So it never hurts to ask. |

I buy daily via eBay from all over the world, and I'm in the Netherlands. The only nes who don't want to ship here occasionally are Americans. Odd, I blame lack of knowledge of the difference between countries. |

"Can't you read " Dyslexia makes it difficult especially if people put parts they wish seen in different colours and print sizes so the support programs have difficulty with them. x42 |

Depends on the country, I suppose. Once the mail crosses the sea, insurance and tracking go awry… |

EBay sucks. It just does. Except for those buying, of course. Your experience will undoubtedly vary…. |
