I'm posting this here as a head's up, becuase I know many pony collectors are also doll collector/sellers.
I put up a large lot of bratz/barbie clothing and accessories and dolls. It was a very short description, which simply stated: Large lot of barbie and bratz clothing and accessories, as shown in pictures, shipping will be $35 to Canada or $75 to USA, no shipping available for this parcel to other countries: it is too heavy.
I then had it set so canada and usa were the only countries available under the 'shipping' tab and ebay settings and stuff.
So this person bids, wins, and the auction ends. marypoluianmi Once the auction ended, she then contacts me saying she was very sorry, but didn't realize the shipping was so expensive. On top of that, she's in Russia! I checked her previous feedback, and the items she bids on are barbie-size clothing and dolls and stuff like that. Obviously, she does not bother to read the item descriptions, since my shipping was in the first two lines of the item description.
Not a big deal to cancel and relist, I am not out of pocket. But this person could very well have cost me bids from serious buyers, and is a waste of time. Just wanted to make sure others were aware if you are also in north america.
