    You can't send an invoice as ebay add the cost for handling and international part of the shipping and then they invoice the buyer. 

    I have noticed I get more unpaid items on the gsp items, I'm not sure if this is because the total comes to more than the buyer is expecting when they goto checkout?
    I know on a few items I have bought from abroad the total amount to pay is always higher than the estimated amount shown before checkout.

    GSP sales are the best ones.
    Not heard of any problems claiming back from ebay if an item arrives damaged - they're the last ones to repackage it for going abroad so if it arrives with them damaged, they're not likely to pack it damaged.  And if it arrives damaged at the buyer, it'll be hard for ebay to prove it wasn't their shoddy packaging.

    I don't think I have ever had anything repacked - certainly the few things I have spoken to buyers about have been in the original packaging I used.
