We don't have a Shopping Cart or Shopping Basket on eBay Canada

To use the shopping basket you have to log into eBay UK   http://www.ebay.co.uk

To use the shopping cart you have to log into eBay.com ( USA )   http://www.ebay.com

For me, as I've said many times before - I need a cart!  Kalvin said a long time ago they were "working on it", I wonder if they actually are.  I'm pretty sure one of their techs could do that extremely quickly.  Every site I visit has one and obviously if you buy say 2 separate items from a seller, and they offer a discount for more than 1, you have to contact the seller and tell them.  One seller in the states was very pleasant, gave me the discount but couldn't understand why .ca doesn't have one, well neither do I.

"as I've said many times before - I need a cart!"

That is your opinion and you are entitled to it.

Personally I think a shopping cart on eBay.ca would be detrimental to Canadian sellers.

That is my opinion and I am entitled to it.

While some sellers tell eBay "Give us a cart", other very experienced sellers tell eBay: "Please don't".

What is eBay to do?

Apparently they are testing carts on .ca now and some buyers are able to use them.

As a seller, I would rather see ebay allow a buyer to ask for an invoice without a cart and not make immediate payment mandatory. It's fine to say that purchases will automatically be combined when a buyer puts an item in a cart but there are many sellers like myself who sell some items that are 30 grams and other items that are 1.5kg so it is difficult to have combined shipping rules that fit all situations.
