Why am I blocked from bidding on items because my account is based with a "Canadian address", from sellers who states will only ship within the USA, no international shipping?

 

I would have like to bid on the items & then,  easily request the item to be ship it  to my American friend who lives the  USA.

This will meet the terms of the seller, since I am a eBay member, using Paypal & shipping within the States.

 

Why am I block from these bids?

Hi .. Doesn't meet seller's terms because your PayPal payment will have a canadian address and that is the one PP instructs seller to ship to or breach PP Seller Protection. Neither can a US address be added to your canadian PayPal account.

 

Can ask seller if they would consider a US address and add your ID to their exempt list. Not likely for a new member with no buying history.

 

Send your friend funds through PP and have them purchase for you.
