Welcome back Tyler,
I received a message today regarding the new outline for privacy and cookies within eBay. When checking my settings came to this dead end. You could please look into this.

The EAA area appears to be working as required, but not applicable.

Every now and then I have trouble makeing a label and have to bring my package to the postoffice, Yesterday I finally figured it out. Shippo won't allow any foreign letters. One of my packages had the name printed in Japanese and when I chaned it to English it worked fine, The 2nd from China had the city written in Chinese (I copied it to Google Translate and it said it was Beijing but we're not supposed to make any changes to the address, so I had to go to the post office.
Does anyone know a way around this? How I can purchase my label online?
Thanks

Hello Tyler,
Has there been any word as when/if this will apply to Canadian sellers?

You could try purchasing those labels on Paypal. I'm sure that in the past PP allowed foreign alphabets on the labels.

Hi, there.
I'm curious how the "Offer to Buyers" rollout is coming along. I'm interested in giving it a shot, but I haven't been hit yet (as far as I can see); any news about when that process will be finished?
Thanks in advance for any info you can offer!

Hi @lotzofuniquegoodies - would you mind checking once more and letting me know if it works now? I'm able to get to that page without any errors.
If you're still running into it would you grab me a screenshot and send it to me?

Displays in Chrome. See attached. Still same result.

Hi @bunbar - I've checked with Shippo and they've said that their labels do support non-english characters, and if you're running into further errors to contact their support staff so they can help.
Alternatively, @pjcdn2005 gave a great workaround too! 🙂

Hi @lotzofuniquegoodies - I don't have any details regarding managed payments and how it will work with Canadian members when it gets to us.

Hi @stilldennis - it's still in the process of being rolled out. I'm hoping for an update this week or next. Thanks!

That's odd @lotzofuniquegoodies - I'm using Chrome as well. Will you try the basics (clear cache and cookies, etc), and if it continues to give you an error please send me a private message with your browser version? Thanks!
