DON'T!

You do not have enough experience as a seller (or even as a buyer) to sell internationally.

Especially cool high value collectibles like your Batman paraphenalia.

 

And as a new seller, I doubt eBay will let you ship internationally yet.

There are a couple of loopholes in that statement.

Generally Canadian sellers are allowed to ship to the USA.

And some overseas buyers use freight forwarders, usually based in the USA. Although our southern neighbours are terrified of forwarders, they are actually the second safest addresses we can ship to.

 

When you have at least 10 DSRs, know what DSRs are, and understand their utter unimportance, then you can feel confident about shipping overseas.

 

Meanwhile, remember that if you sell something, eBay will Hold your customer's cleared payment for up to 21 days against your good service.

 

Oh.

A thought.

EBay only requires Signature Confirmation of delivery on shipments over $750. In spite of this, given what you are selling, I would strongly advise you to add Signature Confirmation to your shipment. Sell it to your customer as being for his protection, although it actually protects you. And for $1.50, you can't buy better insurance against false claims that the shipment was not delivered.

If you provide a shipping cost to another country  users there should see the listing on .com and .ca and in some cases, on other sites. But as the other poster said, you are selling expensive items that attract scammers.  I would not recommend shipping outside of Canada or the US.  

 

Ideally, a seller should start out selling less expensive items until they are familiar with how things work here.  A couple of things to watch out for...If a 'buyer' asks you to text them, for your email address or Paypal info, they are likely trying to scam you. 

You are a relatively new eBay member with 0 selling experience on eBay, so really you need not yet concern yourself with the world wide global market.. your lack of experience and selling knowledge, combined with listing high value items could be problematic for you and may not end well for you as you may find yourself a target for scammers. It would be in your best interests to ship your items only within Canada and/or within Canada and to the USA. You need to learn all there is about selling BEFORE concerning yourself with International shipping destinations.
