even if you take the money out of your account paypal expects it, they will take it out of your bank account or your credit card, if you close the account they will file a negative credit report against you and send you to debt collection, ask me how I know

Paypal is probably THE most crooked company around and their customer service sets the bar as low as it can be set

that being said I got burnt once internationally but have sent dozens of things over seas with no problems, over seas buyers are usually quick to pay and friendly people

People told me that I guess I just got lucky and maybe the guy didn’t respond to another message from PayPal or something to take it that extra step but ya it sucks I have had a Paypal account with negative funds in it and I just don’t open it anymore

0 feedback from Ireland huh? Probably RIRA and going to use it to make a bomb.

I mean, why else do you grossly overpay to ship an item overseas that you can easily order locally?

:bigtup:

I don’t ship Internationally, it’s just a hassle, combined with someone w/0 feedback.  
I’ll pass.  
Simply reply that you don’t ship outside the US 48.  
When you list you item, you can also set up preferences for shipping and restrictions on who can bid.
