I want to know why items are allowed on ebay.ca that are not available to ship to Canada?

Is there a way to get general comments to the ebay people? I am really getting frustrated shopping on ebay.ca and finding out that a product I have found does not ship to Canada. Does .ca not mean Canada?

Hello.  This has been a ongoing problem with eBay ever since Global Shipping was introduced and the problem seems to be getting worse.  The fact that Canadian buyers have been complaining about this situation all along hasn't changed anything at all and eBay doesn't appear to care to do anything about it.  The fact that this problem is worse now than ever shows that.  It doesn't seem to be just sellers using G.S. that have their listings on eBay Canada when they don't ship here.  It is also happening with sellers from the States using the U.S.P.S.  I have been voicing my opinion about this on this forum for some time now.  It is a frustrating situation that no one cares to correct and it makes for  a less than pleasant experience shopping on eBay.  I don't care for having to contact sellers as to whether they ship here when their listing shows they do but it has got to that point so as to avoid dealing with sellers who are upset or angry because they are getting bids or purchases from buyers in countries they don't want to ship to.  eBay is responsible for this mess and they should be  responsible for cleaning it up so that we all, no matter what country we are from, enjoy the same rights and privileges when dealing with eBay.  Good luck and try not to get too frustrated!
