I agree that Canada, according to the latest stats I can find, represents just over 1% of total sellers- it's a little more difficult to see the number of actual sales in Canada- although most of the traffic is from the US and the UK- but you have to understand- this isn't just a Canadian/Mexico (which has almost 1.5% of ebay traffic)- the tariff threats is being made to the EU- Look at the numbers- 31% of all sellers are from the US. The UK has 29%, Germany 15%, Italy, France, and Belgium another 4% in total- that means including the UK and the EU, the total number - over 48% of the sellers are from the UK, and just for fun- add on Canada, Mexico- we are at over 50%- Then of course there is 12% from China, 1%- Hong Kong, and a surprise to me- 4%- Australia. Yes, Canada alone may not mean much- although getting accurate data on sales for individual countries is challenging. These tariffs will affect more than us- and we ALL need to be prepared. For fun, log into the UK or FR sites and look at their chat rooms. They are acting and getting ready, and we must do the same. It doesn't take much for eBay to create an email- IF the tariffs go into place, this is what will happen- what happens to us- will send a clear message to the rest of the eBay GLOBAL community. You say that sellers want more and more- but what exactly are we getting for the money we are paying? Honestly, I would gladly pay more if my store had a worldwide reach- but all we get are empty promises.
