I do not wish to ship international -how do I get people from other countries to Not Bid- It is a lot of extra work for me

I have my Ebay pages set with NO international shipping but I have had 2 this week. It is a lot of extra woork for me to get to a PO in the snowy conditions we have & it is also a 10mile trip. I do not wish to sell international. How do I get these people to understand this. I have said I will ship the items, I really do need the money, But this is NOT my wish. & there is No easy way that I can find to JUST cancel their bids. Why have us set HOW WE want to sell if NO ONE follows it??

You go to your seller preferences under accounts under myebay and set your blocks properly, in addition to blocking bidders without a USA shipping address you can block bidders with no paypal account ( a prime source of cranks and scammers), bidders with 2 or more nonpayment strikes, several other choices for you to look at as well.


Wish my fingers would pay closer attention to what I spell correctly.

Go to

My eBay > My Account > Preferences > Show All>Shipping Preferences>Exclude shipping locations from your listings

Click on "show" and select from the choices that you will see there.

You don't seem to know that you can arrange for free pick up by USPS, right?

Not for international shipments. My mail carrier will not take them and I assume that the OP, like me, must take these to the PO clerk desk.
