Countries to avoid shipping to?

Total ebay novice here. Me and DH started to sell key rings (of all things) last week.
I have noticed that some sellers specify certain countries they won't ship to. One area in particular is South America, which I think is quite a sweeping blanket ban!
Anyone got any advice about countries where packages 'disappear'?

I've had problems with some of the former Eastern block countries in the past, particularly the Baltic states. I second the avoid Italy.

Excellent advice. Thanks. The difficulty is trying to accrue reputation we've found. hence the free P+P worldwide, no exceptions. Although, given your posts, that's a few to exclude.
Onward and upward.

personally never had a problem with italy but tend to think it is communal entrance hall flats that are big problem no separate mail boxes

I send everything to south/central america and asia signed for whatever the value, rest of the world depends on value
