it possible to list the item in USA and the account in Egypt

[maged]

Hello everyone, I am from Egypt and I want to sell digital goods on eBay, delivered via a download link to the buyer via private messages. I know that at any time eBay can restrict my account because the item sold does not have a tracking number, so I want to specify where in the US the item will be sent from and I will buy anything. It's only a dollar, like a stamp or a thank you certificate, so I'll get a tracking number and put it on eBay. Can I have my own eBay account in Egypt and place the product in the US? Because if I sell anything from Egypt, even a certificate of thanks to the buyer, the shipping price will be very expensive, and there are no completely cheap shipping companies in Egypt. please advise

at the start it is better to write egypt as item location but you can still provide US tracking

just ebay bots do not like new members whose registration does not match item location so that it should be done on an account that is at least a few months old with some selling history

The cheapest USPS postage with tracking is now over $4

Are you sure I can include a US tracking number and the item is located in Egypt?

From anywhere in the world you can sell on eBay except for some very few countries - the problems you could have in this case are what you yourself say about the tracking numbers.

Any tracking yu enter must show it has been delivered to the buyer address on your shipping label.
not sure how you can accomplish this by buying cheap candy and use its tracking number,
You can ask a friend ins USA to send your digital buyer a first class mail piece with tracking,but that would cost you $4.

ebay have different departments , those who suspend you for using a different country (it is usually bots) as item location are not concerned about which tracking you upload , tracking comes into play if you start receiving disputes for example

Do you have a way to convert your digital product to a physical card?
If so, can you hire someone to ship via USPS?

Yes, I can put the item on a memory card and ship it, but the problem is that USPS shipping fees are very high here in Egypt.

I don't have a friend in the United States. Do you know a site that sells cheap things that I can buy and place shipping to whoever buys my item?

[maged]

My friend who lives in France told me that eBay will consider this sold item to be dropshipping. Is this true?

AMZN has many sellers,find something cheap and ask the seller to send to your friend,but you must have a prime account .
