International bidder but I don't ship international except Canada and usa

[arcra8009]

Hello, new seller here. Need advice. I put an item up for bidding and just received my first bid. However, I prefer to sell and ship to Canada and USA only. The bidder is from Singapore. So how would that work? I don't belief I have it set up with shipping option for international buyers except USA and domestic Canada. If he wins the bid, do I have to sell it to him and mail it to Singapore? Also will I be in the hole for the international shipping overseas which I don't think has been set up as an option. Advice appreciated. Thank you.

Setting up buyer requirements, including specifiying countries you don't ship to:

However there are a lot of little boxes to check when you list an item... in the shipping options there's a link for excluded locations: click that and check all the boxes except for Canada & USA.  As others have noted, someone might be registered in another country but still have a Canadian or US address on file.

I've found if you don't get AAALLLLL the boxes, you can still end up looking like you'll ship to other countries.

Also, it is of course up to you to choose what shipping methods you want to use, but I wonder if you might want to review them -- I'm not sure how successful $13 handlebar grips will be with $43 shipping across Canada. Cda Post rates suck, but there are cheaper options, surely.
