Title: Make it more easy to exempt certain countries from shipping options for vendors!
Post by: FartBomber on September 21, 2012, 12:59 pm
I would like it to be more easy to select to which places you ship and which not. For example, I dont ship to the US, Netherlands, Australia and Norway but I can only select "Worldwide except USA" as a shipping category. Vendor support told me to open a feature request in this forum for it so there ya go :)

Please get it fixed asap, I hate having to cancel customers who dont read my userpage because it costs them money due to the hedged escrow fee of 4%.

I agree. It would be more convenient for me if I could see if a seller is willing to ship to my country without having to click on the seller.

Yes please, as an Australian I find it very annoying to have to scour all the vendor pages just to work out what I'm eligible to buy.

This would be a nice feature indeed. I ran into this problem a couple of times where my order was cancelled. In these cases the vendors also forgot to mention it on their profile page. It's a bummer when your order gets cancelled.

Fartbomber, lately I noticed a lot of dutch vendors stop shipping domesticately. Can I ask you why this is happening?

@tengo, if it wasnt mentioned on their profile page then id demand some coins of them. I dont ship to NL anymore because i dont want to make it easy on Dutch cops if they want to inspect my dope/packing method etc :P Its kinda sad for my would be customers from the Netherlands who arent cops but yeah, cant be safe enough these days.

Hi Fartbomber, thank you for your reply and explanation. Very understandable, bit sad though.. One of my first orders on SR was with you.

Good suggestion, but I doubt it'll happen since it only affects vendors.

that's not true.. if a vendor is not shipping to my country It would be nice seeing that without clicking on the profile.

Hi - I am a new vendor and I am also having this problem. It would be great to have more options in this area as it is already causing me some problems.

Its the drug Armstrong is being accused of using. Since he now resigned his position at his Livestrong foundation I thought it would be cool if he started a EPO foundation :P

ohh I see. lol. Yeah I don't really give a shit about that guy tbh. I just used to have a thing for the bracelets. And I really like that someone basically created livestrong as a word. It has great meaning to me.

This should be done as it makes sense or at the very minimum - alert newbies during sign up that there's a 4% fee for cancelled orders. That way there when someone from another country orders from a seller that clearly states their shipping policies & won't ship to them, it will avoid the "why do I have less btc's" conversation
