Reply to "Blocked by seller - how to tell"

yibadaMember

Thanks so much for your quick reply Mike. No you didn't miss something obvious, I just didn't post the whole story. I thought my essay was long enough already

I use a US mail forwarding service that accepts mail/packages etc and then bulks them up and forwards onto me in Australia. Gets around being unable to purchase things on EBay (or US stores) that will only be shipped within the USA.

I give a US address for my purchases and the seller doesn't realise I'm not based in the US.

The "blocked by seller" thing is just frustrating because I don't know until I get the snipe rejection that the seller has blocked non-US bidders. Not AS's fault, just frustrating for me.

I think I might have to attempt to place a manual bid on Ebay for each item before I set up the snipe, and then maybe I can get any warning messages first.

Thanks again for your reply. Much appreciated.
