    Default Experiences with selling to Bangkok?

    Hey guys,

    Just had a BIN on one of my bay razors, to a 0 feedback newly registered user.

    That sort of thing has never happened to me before. Should I be worried? Perhaps cancel the sale?

    I know there have been lots of problems with shipping to Italy, and some problems with Russian territories. Has anybody had any experience with shipping to Thailand?

    The buyers name is Wayne. Do we have any members by that name in that area?

    Clue me in if any of you have some input.

    Thanks!

    No experience, sorry. Just because they have no feedback dose not mean a problem. So long as you get paid just ship.

    I've sold a small number of razors to buyers in Thailand. Never had a problem with them. Just make sure that you get the postal address written in English.

    I had a few things shipped to me from the US and UK when I was in Bangkok. No problems and it was actually pretty fast. One week or less.

    zero feedback buyers are always a concern especially overseas. Just make sure the payment is verified before you ship. Thailand is pretty reliable shipment wise as opposed to Indonesia which is a red flag country.

    You are correct to be wary...zero feedback buyers from overseas always make me nervous. There is no way to track the package in some areas and PayPal will side with the buyer if they do a claim regarding a non-received package. I am not saying don't do it, just be careful.
