Also, you can just leave the shipping as it is- the person wouldn't have bidded if they thought that the shipping price was too high. Shipping is an additional way that sellers make money.

And, as disneyguy said, DO NOT SEND THE ITEM UNTIL YOU GET PAYMENT! That's extremely important.

If the seller hasn't paid yet (or sent payment), then you should sent the invoice, but when someone wins, they get an email, and they can check their eBay account to see how much they owe.

But in my listing, I said that I would only ship to the United States. Since they are from Canada, shouldn't I increase the shipping since it is out of the country? So, if it sold for $29.94 and the shipping is $5.95, without changing that, they would have to pay $35.89? I still don't know about the shipping, I even told the buyer that I would up it. Maybe I'll only add a dollar or two.....

Based on 2 lbs rates to Canada would be:
Express Mail® International 5 Days $25.00
Priority Mail® International 6 - 10 Days $17.30
Priority Mail® Flat Rate Box 6 - 10 Days $23.00
First-Class Mail® International Varies $8.26

I'm just guessing 2 lbs with packing.

I would definitely asked for more..

Well, the post office's website is only an estimate- I've used it and ended up payng more than it said, and I've used it and ended up paying less.

If you really want to be certain, go to the post office and ask them if they could just tell you what the cheapest shipping method to Canada would be (and how much it would cost) (bring the DVD set with you, and, if it's not going to be in its shipping packaging, add on a few more dollars to the cost they gave you and contact the person back).

If you did say on the auction that you'd ship only to the U.S., then you really should contact the person first and say that international shipping will be more (when I list auctions, I always write "International bidders- contact me for shipping price" or something to that effect).
