International sales can be done in two ways:
- Through the eBay marketplace of your country – By configuring international shipping in the dedicated shipping settings tab, setting costs, and dedicated shipping services (up to 5 configurations of different services). In this case, the sale will be made through the main eBay site. This configuration is the simplest because, if you have already configured the sales module in your country, it will only be necessary to complete the international shipping configuration and resynchronize the products to be ready for use. Refer to the “Shipping” section of the site for more information on configuration.
- By configuring and adding marketplaces from various countries through the “Add marketplace” dropdown menu. In this case, products will be listed directly on the eBay marketplaces of the configured countries. This will require a dedicated configuration of the module (category mapping, shipping settings, etc.) for each marketplace, allowing you to manage the products to be synchronized, any price adjustments, shipping costs, as well as a dedicated description template. In configuring shipping and related costs, consider the “domestic” country as that of the eBay country you are configuring (for example, if you are selling from Italy but configuring the DE marketplace, the national shipping costs will be those to Germany).
When selling on foreign eBay marketplaces, it is important to consider and take note of the specific eBay rules of the respective marketplaces and any possible publication/selling costs and fees different from those of the main marketplace.
Although this type of activity requires additional module configuration, it will provide you with complete control over what to synchronize.
