It does matter when it's coming from over the border, or from across the pond.  Some people might not want to pay the extra $$ for shipping/customs, and having it in the header just saves people from wasting time with PM's to find out they're out of their shipping price-range.

I am not talking about country, that should be mandatory, but when shipping small items, I have never encountered a shipping method that cared about what city I am in, not even state either. Since the seller determines the shipping method, I don't know how a buyer could use the city or state to help them determine cost anyway without PMing for a quote. Size and weight is also a factor as well, and that is not mandatory in the header. Nobody once needed my city or state and I sold multiple hundreds of items overseas.

True, true...

I totally get the point for items that are potentially a pickup item though.
