I've sold something to Germany but it doesn't seem to acknowledge the global shipping program.
ie no uk address for forwarding just the German address. I've sent plenty abroad before

It's where eBay charge the buyer a massive about of postage and the customs fees at the point of sale. Then the seller just posts it to a uk address ( or whichever country there in) they put another lable on then post it abroad.
It's just another eBay scam which to me seems pointless, you've got to go to the post office anyway why not just post it abroad? You still have to put an address on the box why not put the final destination on and but the expensive middleman?

I bought some stuff on US eBay was about £160 ish I think it was, eBay global shipping was like £20 postage (it was a small parcel) then tje customs which was about £45 with there fees!! Yes it's esier for the seller but it's a dip off or the buyer.
I had it sent via Muscat so it worked out about £20 all in

Royal Mail is a rip off too lol. I had a cougar sent down to me by peakey and they charged him £80 pounds since then I've found out our New Zealand post has a freight forwarding service from the uk us and China, the next buggy I brought down here was only £35 tracked through them so I'd suggest looking around first

Aols when posting with RM the clerks will always try and push special delivery, even after i ask for 1st class signed for - they'll say "do you need it next day? - get special delivery!" The amount of people they must mug off with SD when they could get 1st class is unreal. /rantover Bottom line is if I'm selling I make the postage and insurance terms clear as more stuff is getting lost these days. |

Biggest problem I have had with RM is with recorded they don't care who signs for it, I have had two cases over the years with parcels being delivered 2 doors/same street from the house they should have been as long as someone signed RM was happy and reported job done.the worst one was a yokomo car, it got delivered in the same street but to wrong number, 85 year old boy living in the house just signed as he was asked to then took it in. the Ebay buyer was ranting were was parcel,I looked up the history of the delivery on line and was able to see the name of who signed, told the buyer who luckily knew the name and went and retrieved the car!
RM was uninterested said they had done their job and the address was probably not clear enough and that the old boy was in the wrong as he should not have signed or taken the parcel as his name was clearly not on the front. BUT as he had signed and accepted it it was not their fault.
