On the new results and search features I cannot seem to find a way to click Sellers from Canada only. To be honest if they had a do not use the GSP roundel I wouldn;t mind seeing the US listings but until they do I was looking for specific items from canadian sellers.

Any suggestions....

Hello 'craftycanadianarts',

Ebay certainly makes us put out extra effort to buy other than US, but it is 'do-able'.

First, enter your key words for your item in the Search bar. Select your category if it is other than All Categories.

Click to search.

Mostly US, or maybe even China, right? . . . This is the only way to find Canada only, --

you must THEN scroll down the left side of the page for Item Location and from there choose Canada Only.

And get rid of that 'Best Match' from the Sort bar. Pick Newly Listed, or Price + Shipping or anything else.

Half the time ebay's idea of "best match" will not even have any of the keywords you are searching.

What a worthless offering that is.

Unfortunately you can't save that set up as a permanent preference, -- you will have to go through the same

process every time you start a new search.

Happy shopping, - and bravo for trying to keep your Canadian dollars in Canada where they belong.

If you're okay with seeing listings from sellers outside of Canada, make sure you're viewing your search results in "list view" rather than "gallery view". Any listings with the message "Customs services and international tracking provided" are the ones you likely won't want to click on as those items are forwarded through the GSP.
