Is there a way to list in US$ with item location in Canada?

[vip-marketplace]

Hey guys!

I'm trying to list my items in US$ even though my inventory (and myself) is located in Canada.

I tought I managed to do so but I now realize eBay undertood the following item location:

Item location:

Quebec, QC, CAN, United States

Which results in unrealistic delivery time....

Do I need to give up and list everything is CAD$?

Thanks!

If you want to list in US$, your only option is to list on eBay.com

You can put your location as Quebec, QC with your postal code.

Sellers can no longer list in US$ on eBay.ca. 

Management of eBay-Canada advised Canadian sellers months ago that they felt listing in Cdn$ would generally be more beneficial for them.

To list in US$ you must now list on eBay.COM -- this change came into effect last month.

eBay.CA is now only CA$

Here's a list of shipping choices when listing on eBay.com for the Canadian seller (who ships from Canada)

-.-

To the USA
All flat rate, no calculated, with expected delivery time.

Economy Shipping from outside US (11 to 23 business days)
Standard Shipping from outside US (6 to 10 business days)
Expedited Shipping from outside US (1 to 4 business days)
Flat rate Freight

-.-

Outside the USA, to the rest of the world (including Canada)
All flat rate, no calculated, countries are selectable.

Economy Int'l Shipping
Standard Int'l Shipping
Expedited Int'l Shipping

You can have up to 5 separate International rates for countries you
select plus can have "Require buyers to contact you for international
shipping costs" as a choice. This last International option allows the
potential buyer to ask for a cost and you can calculate a shipping cost to their country.

-.-

A Canadian seller can still buy discounted shipping through PayPal from Canada Post (when CP is not busy with the lockout/strike dancing).

BTW, using a false location is also a violation of your eBay user agreement.

The purpose of putting location on the listing is to give the buyer a heads up about the time it may take for the item to arrive and whether import fees may apply.

EBay is not very conscientious about policing this, but an obviously phoney location is not going to give potential customers confidence in you as a seller.

Take time during the postal holiday to rethink your listings, including location, and looking at them on a smartphone.

BTW-- if you are in Mississauga, I hear good things about ChitChat Express' cross-border service  for shipping by USPS. Or your supplier may have already made arrangements with a courier.
