Excluded country but buyer can still bid because..........

Hello all,


I'm just curious if anyone has had any similar experience , good or bad , about the following:


 


I was having nothing but trouble selling to buyers in CHINA so I made sure that all my listings excluded China.


I have an existing listing with 2 days to go and the high bidder is listed as being in China.


I called Ebay and they said the buyer has a shipping address in the U,S.,  so he can bid.


 


Should I be concerned ?


 


Please share your experience please !


 


Thank you

You can cancell the bid and block that buyer from bidding on your items.

Happens all the time.


 


As long as the shipping address is in the US or Canada and their feedback is good - there is nothing to worry about.

Do you have your setting to "block buyers from countries I don't ship to" set?

Ebay has been doing that to many (or all?) of the media listings but no one seems to know why.

I forgot to add that I think this is a .com problem. I don't think that .ca listings are having the same problem.

That may be why both posters who have problems are registered in the USA and come to the Canadian Boards for expert advice.....LOL:^O
