    Re: Help!!!! Should I ship to Taiwan

    Another thng, with certain items you can half-expect international bidding. I put up on eBay a 1960 England World Cup soccer uniform (jersey, shorts, shoes) worn in a movie. I would have been dim to have been shocked to find out the winning bid came from England.

    I remember a Canadian hockey card collector saying the dumbest thing he saw was American sellers of Canadian hockey cards who block Canadians from bidding.

    I ship a fair amount internationally, mostly Western Europe, and have had little to troubles. Checking their feedback and what they buy and sell, you can get a strong idea if they are legitimate. The guy I sold the baseball press pin to in Taiwan had a good feedback ad his history showed that he bought and sold baseball memorabilia.

    Just make sure you have a tracking number. If for some reason the buyer said he never got the item, Paypal will take the money out of your account. This has happen to me a couple of times when I shipped some baseball cards.

    I've shipped to Taiwan twice before and have never had any problems. Regular airmail only took about a week.

    I shipped a Japanese player's bat to Japan, and it was a terrific deal. I got more than I wanted - he got the bat in a week. IF they pay you, and you want to sell it...go for it.

    No, I don't remember the customs form being to involved or time consuming. There are a couple of different forms so just make sure you get the correct one for your particular shipping order.

    Yes, fill out the customs form before you get in line. Mark as "gift" to save your customer some fees.

    Hello, I just recently listed an item on ebay, and I got a question asking whether or not I would ship to Taiwan. He said he could pay by paypal. I think that this would make the transaction safe, but I've heard of scams being run by people asking for items to be shipped to Taiwan. Any help would be appreciated. thank you, Manny
    Not sure what your item is but I shipped a jersey to New Zealand and it cost around $38 for international priority mail. I shipped the item in one of the free priority boxes from the Post Office. If you do ship make sure to ask the buyer what they want listed on the Customs form. This could make a difference in them possibly paying more money.

    What item will you be shipping? I can't remember the past as much, but last week I mailed a jersey to China, and it cost roughly $15.

    I've shipped there plenty of times. The same goes for other places overseas. Just make sure the money clears from paypal. Big collectors outside the United States.
