eBay Suspended & PayPal Limited Forums - Shipping interntionally

Shipping internationally is what ended my career with eBay and this is how I got here.
there are so many people who claim they did not get the pack etc but there is no way to chec. I even got a call from eBay before the suspension with "advice" to start shipping with UPS but UPS charges 100$ for what I sell and the item value is less than that, crazy!
So yes I now do it different, since my business is very much europe based and I work for an airline and fly for free I take things on with me and then ship them from Europe, with signature confirmation and I have won every case, take that eBay :D
Good luck, be careful

in 14yrs I have NEVER had anyone complain of the customs due when they get it so the forms amount is irrelevant to me. Or even ask it to be sent as a gift.

Besides ebay strongly talks about not doing that for customers.

To be honest, I've always shipped internationally as a gift... I'm going to change this though. I like shipping through PP, but their customs form confuses me a bit. Should I use the "other" option or what??

Most of my sales are coming from Australia.

I figured most of the antiques and collectibles would go to the UK but I guess I was wrong.
