All that matters is that you show a domestic postage and since you are listing on ebay.com your domestic postage is for the US. You don't have to show shipping to anywhere else if you don't want.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.

You will also be paid in dollars, so probably best to set it as paypal only as you won't want dolalr cheques. The money will go into paypal as usual but will show in a different pot and rmeain in dollars. You can draw it out to your UK bank account exactly as you would the sterling balance but you pay a small conversion rate fee.
Don't you have to accept Paypal only in the US? I remember the stink when they stopped sellers accepting paper payments."Well, it's election year, Bill, we'd rather people didn't exercise common sense..." - Jed Bartlet, The West Wing, season 4

I don't think they are paypal only yet, I still have drop down boxes to accept money drafts (or something like that) on ebay.com. Obviously though being in the UK and getting paid in dollars makes it unrealistic to start faffing around with dollar cheques.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.
