accousticguitar Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 I have my sealed Videoplexer up for sale on ebay and some guy from Brazil wants to buy it. I wrote back and told him I don't ship to foreign countries and he wrote back with one word: "Please." So what do you think, should I ship to Brazil?

If you are, send it registered mail from the USPS or by UPS! Get max insurance on it Tracking as well! Anthony...

Andromeda Stardust Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 http://atariage.com/forums/topic/209423-us-dept-homeland-security-destroys-shrink-wrapped-games/ Brazil isn't much better off than Venezuela, I think. Customs fees in Brazil are stupid high as well. The buyer may leave negative feedback if he has to pay double the fees to customs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 I ship to Brazil all the time. USPS now has tracking for free on First Class International packages, which helps considerably. I might be more wary about shipping expensive items, though. Also, what does the potential buyer's feedback look like on eBay? If it's rock solid and they have recent history as a buyer, that would help instill a bit of confidence. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomBrazil Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Of course you should ship, but first check user's reputation/feedback. Check if 99/100% positive and many purchases. Or tell us his user name, I may know some guys around here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

accousticguitar Posted May 18, 2014 Author Share Posted May 18, 2014 Five watchers and no bidders for two weeks in a row. Even though people asked for permission to bid from foreign countries they didn't bother to bid. I guess that was a waste of time to make it possible for them to bid.

high voltage Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 I would have loved it, I did bid, but it came up in red writing....No shipping to Germany.... So I thought no go, oh well. Also, there's 3 on US ebay which don't sell, maybe around $30 would've been better. You gonna sell to Brazil? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accousticguitar Posted May 18, 2014 Author Share Posted May 18, 2014 I thought I made it available to bid from Germany and Brazil. I guess it's my fault nobody bid then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
