why are the listings on ebay.ca and ebay.com different

[randythepokerguy]

I am doing a search for a specific product.  Why do I get different numbers of listings from ebay.com than I do for ebay.ca?

Not every seller ships to every country.

When you search on eBay Canada you see items that ship to Canada.

When you search on the US site you see items that ship to the USA

Because there are many more listings on eBay.com and not all of those are available to buyers in Canada.

So if you do find the perfect widget, make sure the seller ships to Canada.

If he does not actually block international sales, Contact him for a firm shipping quote by USPS/Canada Post. (There is a post in the Discussion Boards about UPS and couriers.).

Some US sellers have never thought of selling to Canada. Encourage them.
