Any experience selling on ebay FROM Cambodia?
Any experience selling on ebay FROM Cambodia?
I have read posts about people buying goods on ebay and having them delivered to Cambodia, but not the other way around?
I have some items I no longer require and cannot sell in PP, that I would like to flog on ebay. I also have seen few items here in the markets which I think would sell quite well in the west.
So I would like to hear from people who have actually done this, and details of posting costs, reliability and companies used would be great!
Cheers.

Well it is items that would not have a great mark-up here (and no it's not anything dodgy) but I think might have in the west.
Obviously if this does work out well I don't want everybody and their dog knowing what it is and copying me. Comprende?
I don't have high hopes of this working out too well given Cambodia's status on the world stage (half of my old work colleagues had never even heard of this country, including my office manager, and when they did they immediately started talking about paedophiles, drugs, prostitutes and genocidal maniacs - you know the script).
Anybody here sell stuff on ebay or the likes? Anybody?

So, u don't want to tell us anything, but u want us to come on here and tell u our shipping experiences.... That sounds fair.Karong wrote:...

I looked into it a few years back but the cost of shipping from Cambodia is far to expensive.

Don't know if this helps, but dipping into Thailand from time to time and mailing things might work. I know a few eBay sellers based in TH.Karong wrote:I have read posts about people buying goods on ebay and having them delivered to Cambodia, but not the other way around?

OK Cambod, I'll tell you (but this is only between us ok!?) I have discovered the cure to both cancer and AIDS, all that lacks is one special herb found only in Cambodia which I must export to my super-secret lab.cambod wrote:So, u don't want to tell us anything, but u want us to come on here and tell u our shipping experiences....

I then plan to sell the remedy on ebay - simple!
The formula should be in your in-box by now. Thanks again for your help cambod; if it wasn't for your stellar advice I wouldn't even bother with this forum!

Cheers Penhman, I know this is a more reliable and cheaper option, but the distance involved makes it not worth the effort.PenhMan wrote:Don't know if this helps, but dipping into Thailand from time to time and mailing things might work.

Vietnam on the other hand being only 6 hours away by bus may be a more viable alternative?

Cool, thx. Can u send it again? I just checked, and it's not there yet. Try again.
Since u've shared ur secret, I'll share my secrets...
Every postcard I've ever sent has made it to the states. Maybe about 20.
I also sent some pens to my mother using the regular post. Cost about $5 for a plastic shopping bag with 3 pens to be taped up and stuffed in an envelope, all done in the post office... Made it with no problems and I didn't even fill out any forms...

Cheers my man! Who would have thought the USA was running out of pens? (you may have revealed your secret to online success here cambod), but don't worry - I am not planning venturing out into the cut-throat world of biro hustling just yet.
