UPS signature option
Summary: lotzofuniquegoodies expressed concerns about the cost of signature services with UPS, particularly for Canadian orders through eBay Labels, where UPS seems to be the default despite being more expensive. They noted that UPS standard is mixed with Canada Post services and is the only option available, despite there being more services on the UPS website that should benefit from a discount. lotzofuniquegoodies shared their own practice of not offering UPS and speculated that eBay might be making changes behind the scenes.
FYI for anyone that uses or requires signature service. It's a little pricey with UPS. I had a buyer select Regular vs Expedited for Canadian order. eBay Labels defaulted to UPS and the screenshot below popped up. Only 2.00 when it is not included with a CP service within Canada. UPS standard is filtered in with the CP services and is the ONLY UPS option available with both CP and UPS tabs. Limited services options for shipping to USA when you compare what US sellers have access to when shipping to Canada.
Checking the UPS website there are numerous other services available that should be covered under a blanket discount.
As a side I have never offered UPS as an option and never would so possibly eBay is tinkering under the hood. As per sale details customer chose regular.
