eBay excludes some shipping locations to all seller's listings and the shipping exclusions that I see are on your listings are all automatically added by eBay.. I do not know why the exclusions are different on .ca than they are on .com but it has been like that for a while. I suspect that sometimes a country gets put on there and it is forgotten about.  Since ebay.ca does exclude the countries you mentioned on .ca listings there is no way for you to change that other than doing the listing on .com.

Is it possible for eBay to look at the shipping exclusions that they automatically have on eBay.ca listings as some of those exclusions do not seem to make sense, especially since those same countries ARE not included on .com seller's listings.  The only two countries in common on the two lists are the Russian Federation and Ukraine. As far as I can tell the other countries on the .ca list do not have trade sanctions with Canada.

The shipping exclusions on .ca added on by ebay are:

Belarus, Kuwait, Macedonia, Morocco, Qatar, Russian Federation, Saudi Arabia, Ukraine

The shipping exclusions on .com added by eBay are:

Barbados, French Guiana, French Polynesia, Guadeloupe, Iraq, Libya, Martinique, New Caledonia, Reunion, Russian Federation, Ukraine, Venezuela

@pjcdn2005 Venezuela, Iraq, Libya being listed are not all that friendly towards the U.S. Government so that portion of the DOTcom list makes some sense, and Ukraine being a war zone is a no brainer. The remainder all of which are French overseas possessions is very surprising. Maybe there's some sort of trade barrier in place

Go to Account / Shipping Preferences to edit your excluded countries list. Any countries excluded using this setting will be excluded in ALL active and future listings.

This is a "Global" setting that is applied everywhere across ebay.

To over-ride the "Global" exclusion list for a single listing use the exclusion setting located directly within the listing form. Revising the list there applies only to that listing.

On dotCOM there is an option to Exclude Locations under Shipping .

I don't see it on dotCA either, but once I had it set on my dotCOM listings, it seems to transfer over to the dotCA listings.

I use a lot of templates.

So I guess we have to make a template on dotCOM, and a similar one on dotCA and the Block will transfer over?

I hope this is helpful.

That being said, I list almost everything that can be shipped at a Flat Rate without the crazy variations in price we get with Parcel rates, on dotCOM.  Looks like you do to.

Legally we are supposed to send everything going internationally with customs forms. But many *cough* use untracked Lettermail for low value/low bulk shipments, like stamps. Then we use Cookie Jar Insurance , which is just adding a small premium, less than a dime, to every asking price as a sort of self-insurance premium against "loss" in transit. If you are seeing this problem more than one percent of sales, you are above the reported industry average.

Buyers from Kuwait cannot place a bid or BIN in my store.Some buyers managed to open mail adresses in USA,that way they can get whatever they want.No other way around.

If a buyer is from a blocked country and they get around it by opening/changing to a US address then even if they do buy, you only have to send it to the US address they used to purchase. I've only been selling to Canada and US the last few years and often see someone from another country showing up and buying but the address is in the US. I just assume it's either a forwarder company (sometimes they show reference numbers on the label) or even the buyer has friends or family in US (or Canada) and use that address. If someone does get through and buy from somewhere you don't ship you can cancel order with reason of buyer is somewhere I don't ship to.
