Ditto.
eBay seller protection is completely void unless there is a trackable form of delivery. If I am not mistaken, this means FedEx for outside the US and then costs shoot through the roof.
For an pricey items, FedEx may be an option, but for less expensive items it's just not worth the hassle. The seller is left in the position of rolling the dice with a non-trackable form of shipping. All it takes is for one buyer to claim "I didn't get it" and the seller gets hit with a chargeback and has no recourse.
I really miss the days of personal checks and postal money orders sometimes. Never once had an issue with those
