Suffocating our last-in/first-out theory: 

"Once Canada Post receives mail or parcels from customers, it is processing and delivering on a first-in, first-out basis."

I’ll be keeping a closer eye than usual on tracking now.

Re: 'Unprecedented backlogs will continue to mean lengthy delays for customers'

Looks like this postal strike will not be behind us for quite sometime which is a concern. The union president is also on record saying it will not be business as usual at the PO so am sure the union will be doing everything they can do to throw a wrench in getting it back to normal. This is a big concern. Will eBay adjust shipping anticipated delivery times? Do we need to send everything tracked to be protected (the majority of my items are small packet air as the difference on the first level to 100 grams is about $6 more)? Just makes selling that much more difficult as if it wasn’t challenging enough these days.

I am one of those who does not depend on sales for income, so I will not be listing/re-listing anything on eBay for at least 3 weeks. However, I will continue to move items to other venues as I slowly move away from eBay.
