[SEL] Ebay shipping costs

[Peter Lowe]

Can anyone State side tell me why eBay is pushing sellers to post internationally via their Kentucky distribution center??
I have had three sellers on radios I want to buy forcing me to go “Priority International Post” via their Kentucky Center, this is sometimes thre to four times to price of “First Class International Post” and takes the same time to get to Australia.
Is eBay is cahoots with USPS ??? $$$$$
What is happening.
The seller will not just pack and send to direct to me, someone is jerking their chain.
