Your friendly but cornfused Canuck here. Has eBay renamed the shipping method in listings that use GSP? In the past I could have sworn that it actually said GSP or Global Shipping Program. Now it appears that these eBay listings show "International Priority Shipping to Canada" and if you click on the ? beside the shipping method you see: This amount includes seller-specified domestic shipping charges as well as applicable international shipping, handling, and other fees. This amount is subject to change until you make payment. For additional information, see the Global Shipping Program terms and conditions Did the GSP create such a bad taste that this renaming was done?

Hi, is there a way to email Ebay without using the website? I have been trying for days to get in touch with Ebay with the website and it says '' sorry our system is temporarily unavailable ''. I have an issue with a seller and I can't solve it because of the website. Thank you.

I bought an item and when it arrived at China customs I received a message from UPS telling me that there were fees to pay. Can the seller make me pay for the fees?

I used to see prices listed in Canadian dollars almost everywhere on eBay, now even my summary is in U.S. dollars. There is a cute canadian flag at the top of the page, why no Canadian prices? Thanks in advance Stephen

So I'm trying to use a 10 dollar coupon code to purchase coin related items. The items do not have coins within them, they are just holders for the coins. One is a book, and one is plastic case, both of which are completely empty. I am aware that buying currency, more specifically coins with codes and gift cards is not allowed. However, I am confused as to why I can't purchase plastic items that are related to coins. Could this just be a category error? Are all listings within the coin category not purchasable through codes and giftcards? Any help or thoughts would be appreciated, thanks. Error Message: "This code can't be applied to some of your items."

So seller claims to have taken the item to the post office 4 days ago, but Canada Post is staying at " Electronic information submitted by shipper" Could this just be that they didn't scan the package at the post office, or is he just playing me? I had this happen to me once when selling, that nobody scanned it at the post office, and then it ended up being scanned a day later at a CPC facility Delivery progress Information updated: Aug. 31 Date Time Progress Aug. 27 Electronic information submitted by shipper Additional information The sender has created a shipping label for this item and has sent us electronic information. We’ll continue to update the delivery status as we process your item.

I have been in contact with e-bay but never received an answer I was very disappointed I opened a request on May 12 but got no answer

Basically I get an offer from a seller to buy an item at a cheaper price, and 90% of the time the import charges get doubled or more than doubled which makes the now cheaper item more expensive than the original listing, making the offer pointless. Does the seller set the import charges or is that ebay? If its ebay it seems like something is screwing up with their system because it just doesnt make any sense. And I dont want to accept the offer to see if its just a glitch since if its not a glitch then im stuck paying more for the item. I added photos below:

I was interested in buying an ac adapter aka a wall wart. This item is about .5 oz max 1 lb. According to the listing, the listing shows "Standard International Shipping" which according to eBay is "eBay international standard" which has the following shipping costs to Canada: https://pages.ebay.com/seller-center/shipping/ebay-international-standard.html#m22_tb_a1__12 According to that even at 1 lb the item would have $17 USD not the $59.99 USD that close to 10 "different" US sellers are charging. When I contacted eBay to complain what I regard as price gouging for shipping, eBay simply told me "The good thing about eBay is the variety of sellers. One of them is sure to be selling the item with Free Shipping or better rates." The price gouging regarding shipping charges and the inconsistent shipping names in listings used by some sellers make finding out who the courier/shipping method being used for a lot of listings near impossible. I only use eBay as a last resort.

Or is it what I would've paid as the buyer?

Hi everyone... I don't know if it was stupid or not, I bought a bike on eBay Canada in May 2021... The seller, which can be identified in the image, in June, more than 30 days after the purchase, without any explanation, he returned my money and obviously he didn't send the bike... However, there was a balance of US$129.96, referring to freight and Canadian customs, which was not returned to me... I've been trying for more than a month recover this amount from eBay... so far no solution... The seller says he made the refund as he should have, but only for the value of the product. I can't, via eBay Canada itself, get an answer... the last one, on June 24th, they said that in 48 there would be a resolution of the matter... until now, today, July 16th, no sign and no way to communicate... In short, I probably won't recover my money (theft)... apparently neither seller "abcsales26" and eBay Canada are trustworthy... Think twice before buying from this seller and eBay Canada... my marathon to get my money back, plus the inconvenience of not receiving my item without any explanation after wait for more than 30 days... including because the seller has the product and is still advertising it available for sale... It's not fair that I suffered scam a $129,96.

Older days, when there was a problem with item I have bought, I have a number of choices, how do I want to fix the problem. Presently, Ebey offers only returning item to seller, when there is something wrong with the purchased merchandise. This creates opportunity for all kind of fraudulent activities. I have received counterfitted integrated circuit worth $12 from China. If I send it back, the shipping will be more than item value. The seller knows that, and it cost him pennies to print numbers on blank chips. With massive selling of high demand, and expensive chips, this is a good bussiness opportunity for scammers.

This seems so simple and basic but does not appear to be obvious or easy to get answers. This process itself does not appear to be user friendly in itself.

EE10012053706920002040003E0N Продавец не отвечает. Программа пишет что я не могу открыть спор. Как мне вернуть деньги?

I asked about their return policy in the event this item was not compatible, and they said yes, they accepted returns. So I made an offer $9 less then asking, which they declined. I went to make another offer and noticed they dropped the item price by $5, raiesd the shipping price by about $6, now their policy says they do not accept returns, and the "Make an Offer" option is gone. I realise the price changes might be only graceless buissness choices, but changeing the return policy hours after I asked about it? I can only imagine they hoped I wouldn't notice and refused it in the event it needed returning. This is literally the only one of these items on Ebay, otherwise I would just move on.

Anyone else not able to open their Orders from Purchase History? This has been happening off and on for 2 months to me and is frustrating. Cache is cleared, reset computer, still haqppens. Grrr. Any help would be appreciated, hard to figure out what has been sent and who sent it. Thanks in advance.

Just wondering if it's my system or whether there have been problems with the checkout lately. I put several items from the same seller in my cart, selected Paypal, entered Paypal password in the popup, and now I'm looking at a greyed-out screen with a little thingy going around saying 'processing'. Last night I went off and did something else for 20 min. or so and it was still hung when I returned. It's doing the same thing again. I was able to make another purchase of one item from another seller last night prior to that happening. Is the 'cart' checkout specifically messed up? Update: I had to do the transaction on a teeny phone screen to make it work. 😞

I am interested in buying a product from a U.S. seller. It is a small piece of plastic that he has for sale at $2.50 US. Shipping is $11.00 US!!! To buy 6 of them is $15.00 and the shipping is $66.00!!! I can order products from the U.K. and the shipping rates are a third of what I pay from my American neighbors. EBAY is shooting themselves in the foot with these OUTRAGEOUS and INSULTING shipping rates. I used to buy a lot of products on EBAY but due to these revolting rates I have almost entirely moved over to Amazon and only buy here when I have no choice. Congratulations EBAY, you are slowly turning international buyers away from your platform.
