Hi all,
Just put a few items on ebay and returned to selling after a fair break (5 years...
).
Anyways I've had 2 messages today from people in Portugal and Russia asking if i'm willing to ship to their respective locations. Am inclined to go UK only and say no but was just curious if there is actually a reliable/economical way to ship to these places these days or is it more hassle than its worth?
Items are 2nd hand PC components/cards, small/under 2 Kg each and will only go for up to £40-£50ish max
appreciate any experience/advice? they are proposing to pay by paypal or IBAN, latter I'm not too familiar with.
thanks

I would never ship to Russia as its a good chance it will go missing. Portgual I would send to but then I have heard a lot of scammers opreate from there for some reason. If its £50 worth of kit I would just stick to UK as its a lot of money to lose if your scammed.0
