How do I ship something worldwide./how do I input the proper shipping amt. on his order?
Nov 10, 2012 05:55 AM

I am new to this and someone has won my item who lives outside the US.  I don't know how much to charge (don't know where he lives) for shipping, and don't know how to input the shipping amt. so that he can pay through paypal.  Are there other customs concerns for a less than $20. sale?

View the bid history. For example http://offer.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewBids&item=170933407894

 

It will either show the US ZIP or foreign country and postal code.

 

Go to USPS.com and compute shipping. Send the buyer an invoice with shipping.

as for the customs fees that not your concern, it is up to the buyer to check with his countries customs to determine fees.

Anytime I sell something, I get an email from ebay with the buyer's name and address in it. 

 

If you are going to sell worldwide or International, search for International sales or International shipping on the Answer Center. It is risky if you don't do it right. It is not the same as shipping in the US.
