High priority response required. 

 

Is eBay close to an OFFICIAL announcement regarding how dot ca/com sellers should proceed regarding the new customs requirements?

Hi @lotzofuniquegoodieseBay is monitoring potential changes to tariffs and will update the eBay community as additional information becomes available.

I would just be happy if eBay actual mentioned 1 word about the tariffs. It's as if they do not relize the problem Canadian seller's now face. I have 145 packages that we shipped on time, with tracking that are held up at customs. That is 145 potential late shippments. Yet this is no fault off ours. What protection is eBay going to offer. The offer protection when someone in the Southerm states gets 1 inch of snow, but nothing on Tariffs!

devon@ebay  when a seller clicks on the blue highlighted tab it suggests you can filter your listings by title, sku or description. Opening it only includes ITEM DESCRIPTION. 

 

Is there ANY tool built into eBay or in the works to filter/search and then select/deselect listings by Country of Origin (listings made in China)? CoO is a recommended specific in many categories. Sometimes known but not always. Due to these new tariff regulations sellers may need to filter these listings out of their mix until customs paperwork is standardized and/or in place with those additional requirements in eBay labels. There could be potential for additional costs to ship so not worth the effort. (For seller & buyers)

Note: Tested Search Title, sku.. with my current listings : Only results displayed were items that had China in title (1). "Description" should have picked up a small quantity. If i would hazard a guess 60 to 70 % of my listings are made in China. (Testing with the term Author only displays listings with the term Author in title.)

Very important for eBay to understand that until there is a valid system in place for this situation shipping to the USA will be off the plate for Canadian and even US sellers. Personally I can't go by memory to confirm which item are or aren't made in China.

There are discussions regarding shipments involving items made in China and new tariffs. Nothing in the way of any official announcements on the US board. Unable to confirm if any updates have been made to US labels without having a US shipping address.
