Sold item to non-UK despite buyer requirements

Have just checked on an item which sold yesterday and I haven't received payment on to find the buyer is in the Netherlands. I have buyer requirements set to only allow bids in the UK so I don't know how this bid got through.

Given it is going in Europe I guess easiest thing will be to send a payment request with a new postage amount and then post the item anyway but I am annoyed that eBay didn't work right.

    You could always insisit on International Signed For and Tracked. The cost will be much more than Airmail but at least you'd have tracking of it. If the buyer complains then just tell them they should have asked the cost in advance. They may not bother paying that amount so you can do a non paid case and relist it.
