Wondering if anyone knows of a way to bulk relist items from US to CAN $$$? I hear Turbo Lister may do this, but have never used it. Any helpful info would be appreciated. Thanks.

Ebay sent me an email yesterday. In it they state - "We’re here to help make this transition as smooth as possible for you." If this statement had any truth to it we wouldn't be waiting for 6 weeks while Ebay tests their conversion tool. Ebay has been planing this change for months. They should have had the tool up and running before they did this latest C$ promo. They could have made the promo with a US$ option available. As usual Ebay messes things up and creates a lot of bad will with the Canadian sellers. It's incredible how a multi billion dollar company can be so ineptly run. I will be spending the next week relisting hundreds of items one at a time.

I agree with everything you have said.
They have known about this transition for months. First was the statement that listing in $CAD was much more lucrative - without giving any real proof with numbers and metrics. Next was the irritating problem relisting (or using sell similar) with the SYI form and it always defaulting to $CAD and screwing up the business policies - that lasted for months.
I too will probably resort to manually changing my few thousand listings since I doubt I can rely on eBay to provide a reliable tool to do the job seamlessly. Just look at Turbo Lister - that chunky, bloated, slow running program has failed in every possible aspect in helping me with this transition - and yet it could be programmed effectively to help with some of it.
Yep, here I am wasting productivity trying to deal with another one of eBay's biannual selling rules changes - now that is something that does not change around here...
