Anyone shipped to Israel and if so, any problems? I usually don't ship outside the USA, but I currently have an auction going that is currently at $78 and rising quickly. And upon looking at the bidders and their history, the current high bidder has zero feedback/registered yesterday, and lives in Israel. My auctions have a big-azz scrolling banner that says "No International Bidders" but oftentimes, I've had a bidder registered in another country bid and have a mailing address in the USA, so I don't want to rule them out. I'm just trying to prepare myself in case I need to ship it there. So has anyone had any trouble shipping to Israel?

I've shipped several times without a problem. Global Priority Mail is strange there if you use it, I believe it is only for Jerusalem and Tel Aviv.

Stop is right. It will get the first degree from customs. Go to the USPS site, click on international rates, choose Israel and get the rate. Before you sign off, scroll to the bottom of the page and check the prohibited items and restrictions on items that can be imported to Israel. Make sure the item you are selling is not prohibited. The middle east has some strange restrictions on what they will allow to be imported.
