Just guessing potential hassle.

Because no one in the UK ever causes hassle on ebay do they?

Sell worldwide and make more ££.

So I'm just being over cautious, must get more cosmopolitan about my ebaying.

Probably, I might be a bit more cautious for a high value item, but assuming this isn't the case I'd go for it. I honestly think it'll be fine. All my weird/problem buyers have been in the UK, I'm getting better at spotting them now though

OP, if they wanted to scam you, trust me, they would be jumping to use good ol' Paypal... It's a scammer's friend!!

I'm going international then, Exmouth - New York -Shanghai BACS welcome going on the side of the virtual van. This time next year......etc.

Worst happens I'm £25 down. Probably fretting as I've had a few funny ones of late (It arrived smashed to 1,000 pieces, don't know why I signed for it etc), and yes you can kind of spot them, though the art will never be perfected.

My items always seem to be popular with Eastern Europe buyers. I have no idea why, it's just clothes, shoes and related items that I don't want/need anymore for various reasons. I once sold a load of bras that no longer fitted and I think every single one went to Poland! :rotfl:

Not that odd - Poland is horrifically behind when it comes to bra sizes, and if yours were in any way different (ie, not 34/36-A/B/C), then they could probably be sold at a profit here.
