Hi Allen,

Making CoCo stuff available is a hobby of mine, and buying it runs a 
close second. So you've got my attention.

As an enabler, some ideas for the room.

If you are rated an ‘Above Standard’ or better seller on eBay sign up 
for the ‘Global Shipping Program’. International shipments will be 
redirected to an eBay depot in OR or KY. Your shipping responsibility 
and costs end there. Ebay handles customs, and bills the customer for 
VAT, tariffs, airplane ride to Norway, and so on.

With or without GSP, there is a hidden gotcha in ebay shipping. ‘Ship to 
US’, includes possessions. If you do not individually delist places like 
Puerto Rico, Guam, etc you’ll be taking a loss on those sales.

Last thought on eBay shipping. Go here, 
https://www.ebay.com/shp/Calculator plug in package weight, size, 
sending Zip, and consider the NYC/CHI/LA figures when setting a min bid. 
Know that all heavy items will ship to the farthest coast.

Looking forward to more things!


> I accidentally made the first auction live before I entered any shipping details, so I just listed everything with free shipping. I have no issue with international shipping, but I don’t want to get stuck with some outrageous shipping bill that costs more than what the auction sold for.
