Interesting. Looks like I will have to stop selling
to Germany at
least.
Too bad I've sold a lot of stuff to the Germans and I've never had a
problem (except LONG delays in customs). This was a German court
ruling.
Does it apply to the other EU countries?

AFAIK it does apply to all EU countries, but only affects business
sellers.
Private sales, from one individual to another, are not covered by this
law.
This ruling basically states that ebay sales from a company to an
individual are equal to mailorder sales.
We have more than enough USA only offerings as it is....Sadly also
ebay.de is having more and more "DE only" offerings.
