Cancelling a bid

I have an item on ebay which ends tonight. When listing the item, the only postage option I gave was UK as the item is very fragile and I did not want to risk international postage. The highest bidder at the minute is from Japan and did not contact me before bidding:mad:
Should I cancel this bid, the second highest bid is only £2 less.

    If you dont want to post to Japan,then cancel the bid now. Go to the settings page in my ebay,and set your preferences so that overseas cannot bid on your auctions.Im sure Soolin will be on soon with the correct link for this.

    This is the link to set your seller preferences:

    Start from here to set buyer requirements to exclude overseas bidders or bidders with NPB strikes etc.
