Amazon adding yet another country to my account!

Just a heads up - Amazon have overnight added Sweden to my account - that’s 3 unwanted, unasked for extra countries! I’ve just spotted it and made it inactive.

Gee Amazon - I just sell in UK - nowhere else. You can increase my sales in UK with my blessings though!

Not happened to me yet (though do have Poland which I never asked for), but I feel this is so VERY,VERY wrong. Can this even be legal ? - adding things to our account which we have not requested or consented to ??

It does seem to be borderline illegal, definitely immoral, considering that we have to send Duty paid etc, set up new courier accounts, postage charges etc when we want to sell overseas.

It seems incredibly unfair that we can wake up one morning and find all out listings available on another countries website at the same prices as we charge domestic and if any orders slip through we have to fulfil them at the price Amazon decided to set on our behalf, or take the hit for not fulfilling an order where the postage alone would cost more than the amount we received

I suspect that Belgium will be added soon. It’s listed in the list of countries in the Charge Methods page although not in my marketplaces list yet.
