Hi Franc, Personally I wouldn't let a third party handle my valuable collectibles. I'd rather keep things in my control. The international shipping costs skyrocketed this year from the U.S. as well. My feeling is that we have no control of this. It's the way it must be from now on and buyers will accept it - they want certain collectibles and will pay what is necessary to get what they want.
irv _____ From: MoPo List [mailto:mopo-l@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU] On Behalf Of Franc Sent: Thursday, May 02, 2013 7:51 AM To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Subject: Re: [MOPO] Ebay Global Shipping Service Have any of the dealers on this board opted into Ebay's Global Shipping Program, whereby the dealer ships to a processing center for global shipping and that center takes care of everything else including customs clearance? I'm wondering about how effective the service is and how much does is it cost? Also, do International Ebay buyers find this service cost effective in connection with their purchases. I normally ship internationally via First Class USPS insured mail and the cost has gotten widely expensive, so much so that I'm sure it's killing my international sales in connection with my lower priced items. Any response would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
