Just a quickie I hope. How do I make my listings UK only?

Hiya eBay gurus! :wave:
I know people say you shouldn't limit your market but I am finding that I am spending a significant amount of time replying to overseas enquiries which never turn onto sales because my postage is too expensive, or I prefer not to ship to their country of origin.
I find the overseas mail tariff to be vastly more complicated than UK mail which I know pretty much off by heart so I spend too much time looking it all up.
Anyway, I said this would be a quickie!
:D
I have my Auctiva settings set at No International Postage but stil I am getting bids and purchases so what do I need to do?
Cheers,
Love Jacks xxx

You need to set your seller preferences as well direct on ebay
Start from here to set buyer requirements to exclude overseas bidders or bidders with NPB strikes etc.

The blocking bidders with 2 or more strikes is a good one!I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

I blocked about 6months ago after a nightmare trying to deal with a greek buyer! One item has now been 'won' by a buyer from Belgium who i have contacted to say i won't ship too but she hasn't replied yet.. I'm confused as it does show that i block bidders to countries i don't ship to and it clearly states on delivers to "UK" nowhere else! Do i have to sell to her??! Item is fairly bulky!August: £149/£150
Sept: £200
