We stated the items were being shipped from elsewhere. I linked his Ebay with my paypal account and it worked fine for about 5 months, but both of us were suspended in Nov.
The way we did it was that he listed and I took the money and then sent it on to him by various means. It's against Ebay rules but that was not why we were suspended.
He is in South America and a lot of people there sell in the USA this way.
You need a friendly relative in North America and it might work.
It may be the distance and time for shipping that puts people off buying from Oz
Good luck
