Well that was almost coherent.
increased shipping rates to Canada can be free to U.S. but huge to Canada
Shipping rates are not set by eBay but by sellers, working with their national postal service. And of course items entering Canada can be subject to duty and sales tax.
another example is an auction I was watching for 20.00 , seller cancels shortly before ending time and when asked states there was an error with the listing but that he had a lot of interest in the item- sure thing zero bids but says lots of interest
Most bids come in the last few moments of a listing, so he was impatient.
You cannot see how many watchers he had on the item, but he can, nor do you see questions he may have been asked.
no what he did was add something to the listing and practically doubled the price contact ebay and am told imagine if you were the seller he had an error in the price
One of those questions may have alerted him to the actual value of the item. Sellers are allowed to end or revise thier items at any time if there are no active bids. They can also cancel bids if the bidder makes them uneasy.
another time I purchase some goalie pads shipping is specified and when I use visa to pay for item I notice another higher price for shipping
Was this the Global Shipping Program? Early on in the program the actual cost of 'import fees' which include tax and duty were not clearly indicated before purchase. This has been corrected.
If you are unhappy with a purchase that has not yet been shipped, you can ask the seller for a Mutual Cancellation.
