You write in you listings…as far as I know there is no way to exclude any US address

Some put the information in the ships within xxx business days box. This box can hold quite a bit of information

This is what I was talking about. You can change the information on the item(s) through batch edit while the information under the Edit Booth Options, Shipping and Returns remains for the rest of the items or any new items added.

Update Items as a Group (Batch edit)
Click on Shipping
Select Set max business days before item ships put in your information

(I used This item does not ship outside Continental US or PO Boxes. Item ships within 3 business days)

Select Item(s)
Apply Changes
Update booth

Then when or if someone mouses over the info box in the listing, it will be there

Thank you for your help but only a few items have shipping restrictions

CindyBear says: October 05, 2014

You can still enter the information in box batch edit (under shipping) for selected items, which will show when they mouse over shipping “note” in the listings

I will put the shipping restrictions in the listing hopefully the customer reads the entire listing before clicking buy, becouse I would be be so sad to have a bad refund rate or feedback for something that is not at all my fault.

Your buyers are more likely to see it in your listings than in your panel or booth information links, because most of our buyers come from Google and other outside sources and they never see our booth, just the item page. Make it stand out by a bright color test or highlight it.

To Answer Brilliantly

Remember these tips:

  • Use links to other sources to support your opinions
  • Use examples where possible
  • Put yourself in the inquirers shoes: what extra info would be helpful?

Should I post a comment or an answer?

You can only post one answer, so make it count. Maybe your reply is more fitting as a comment instead?

Post an answer for:

  • Replies that directly and specifically answer the original question

Post a comment for:

  • "Thanks," "Me too," "I agree," or "Works for me" types of replies
  • When you would like the original poster to provide more details
  • When you have more to add to someone else's question or answer
