I am shopping for items, as gifts for Christmas. I selected North America ONLY, so I'm not having much fun, hour after hour - when I find a product I want to buy, but the SHIPPING info states: Ships from China... and then quotes something like 22-75 days to get. I don't want to see any sellers that ship the products from China. How do I turn that off. I thought selecting North America Only would do this for me.

Another issue, I see that Sellers post on the product page that items ship from Ontario, Canada, or New York, however when you get to check-out, it changes to show shipping will take 22-upwards days... not the 3-10 days that was displayed on the first page.

Is there a way to just hit on products that are shipped from North America? If there is please let me know. I'm not having much fun shopping, this round. I did just purchase something from a seller that did advertise shipping from the states to Canada, would be here in 12 days... however now that I go to my Order History and look at that order (which hasn't been filled yet). States: Shipped from China. So I'm left hoping that my items will arrive Dec 11, as promised on the first page.

Would appreciate knowing how to set up a filter like this, anyone know?

Thank you

This may sound odd, but try Searching with Highest Price plus shipping first.

That means the low priced/free shipping from China stuff is waaaaaaay down near the bottom of the list.

Then drill down a few dozen items to your price point.

And I may have my citizenship revoked for this, but:

Search with List View and not on a mobile.

Look for items marked:

Customs services and international tracking provided

Those items are shipped from the USA or UK using the Global Shipping Program.

They are NEVER shipped from elsewhere.

They will have shipping that includes Canadian duty and sales tax included.

By the way the location is supposed to give the location of the product not the seller.

But a lot of dropshippers are too lazy or dozy to bother with this.

They can be Reported if you were feeling very grouchy.

Waste of time. You already know ebay will do NOTHING.

T-ripriprip, when I search in "list view" instead of "gallery view" on my laptop, the item's claimed location comes up with the search result. Does it work that way for you, too?
