My main address is set to Slovakia, but the seller does ship the merchant to Germany only. In this case I get: AUCTION RESTRICTED: SHIPPING ADDRESS COUNTRY RESTRICTED

But I want to bid to that item anway, as I have a friend there. What can I do? Do I setup the main address to GErmany until auction finishes?

Shipping address is what needs to be set to where the seller is prepared to send things.

Perhaps when you have a bit more time, I recommend having different Ebay accounts for different shipping addresses so that you don't have to keep changing your shipping address between bids.

It might also be a good idea to try a test bid to ensure that Ebay has recognised the change and is allowing bids after you change a shipping address.

Yes, I can have to separate accounts, but how to deal with Gixen then, as I do not want to buy 2 paid accounts?

If you are not doing it very often then you could use an unpaid Gixen account and take the risk of it being a bit less reliable.

You can also change authorisations on Gixen accounts to change the Ebay id that it places bids on, but that again introduces the risk of you forgetting to swap it when required.

If you are doing this a lot and if you ever have different items that need different shipping addresses on the same day, then I would recommend using separate Gixen accounts, and in that case $6 extra a year really isn't that much extra to be paying for the convenience of not having to changing things around all the time. You only have to remember to log into the Gixen account that corresponds to where you want the item shipped and you can have separate auctions on separate accounts at the same time with the wins going to different locations.

You still might get issues with some sellers that will only send to a Paypal confirmed address, so you also need to set up separate shipping addresses in Paypal if you use that to pay for things.

Ihave the same isue 174264877117. The ebay answer me:
"Your address wasn't the issue with these auctions so I think that it may be something to do with the sniping app that you've used"

Was 'AUCTION RESTRICTED: SHIPPING ADDRESS COUNTRY RESTRICTED' the status that Gixen has given this snipe on both the Main and Mirror tabs ?
