My understanding is that you can only get contact information if you actually have a completed transaction with the seller.

Actually, Rich, that's not necessarily true, especially if you are a non-US buyer, it depends on the settings. I recently wanted to ask a US seller whether he would ship to Canada and I got the same message as Helmut, with NO options.

I think this is a new setting for US eBay sellers who do not want to ship overseas. It means, rather than answering questions from buyers in countries they do not ship to, they can simply choose NOT to answer questions.

Claude is correct that it's keeping people from contacting each other.
but there are other ways. You can actually get all seller information by requesting it via a special form. even includes an address & phone #

to Helmut's original query.. yes.. ebay has made you jump through a couple extra hoops, but if you choose "other" in questions, you get a pop out with a box to enter a question yourself

Yes--I've gotten that and it is another of their ways to keep you from contacting sellers privately. They have done far more than preventing off-ebay private transactions. They have encouraged shill bidding and there is no way to check if it is being done or to inform ebay about shill bidding.

Buyer beware is never more important than now.

Unfortunately, this seller is not able to respond to your question. We suggest reviewing the item again to see if your answer is in the seller's listing.' Has anyone ever had this before? Is there a default setting, that allows you to refuse any contact with potential buyers or this eBay's idea of a joke???
