Not sure if this is the right place to vent about this. But, I ordered a set of golf clubs nearly 3-weeks ago and had them shipped to Canada. Shipping cost $90 which seemed steep compared to other sites I have shipped clubs from in the past, but I thought not much of it. The shipment was processed almost immediately which was promising, but it has been a total pain ever since. The shipment is USPS International Priority mail. They left Alabama, took 5 days to reach Miami where they sat for another 5 days. Now they have been sitting at Canada customs for a week with absolutely zero update. Though I know that USPS, Canada Post, eBay, etc have nothing to do with the border service agencies, I must voice my disappointment. For $90 shipping, this seems incredibly poor. Has anyone else had similar experiences? If so, is there anything I can do from my end to speed up the customs process? I've shipped countless items across the border and have never had it last more than a day or two at customs.

Hello, I printed 2 separate labels on Monday. Each item were sold on ebay and the shipping labels from Canada post were printed via paypal "print shipping label" option. Upon completion of shipping information, label was paid for , track number received and printed. I dropped both packages off at the local post office. I was later contacted by local post office claiming that when items were scanned an code was coming up that stated "distribution order blocked for credit"?? my option was to 1) pay counter rates 2) take postage back So the money for both shipping labels came out of my account. I was issued a shipping label from Canada post for both packages. However I had to pay again at the post office so my packages could be delivered. I destroyed the label affixed to both packages, and paid for new ones at the post office. I have since had to void the label via paypal and ask for a refund. Has anyone had this issue and why? Thank you

So I want to mail a package by Regular Parcel with no insurance or other options, and I have a bunch of stamps I want to use up and stick it in the mailbox rather than go to the Post Office. It's 24x18x6 cm and only weighs 78 grams, and the Canada Post website says to Saskatchewan it will cost: Regular Price: $12.44 Fuel Surcharge: $1.43 Tax: $0.69 Since I've already paid tax on stamps, I always just put the regular price on when sending lettermail. When you're sending a parcel, though, do you attach just the regular price or the regular price + fuel surcharge?

I am a small time seller,mostly hockey cards.I am currently only selling in Canada.I would like to expand and start selling to the U.S.,this makes me very nervous.The shipping costs alone are crazy.I would very much like to have a lot more sales.Just selling in Canada is not generating enough sales.The post office where I live is very legal when it comes to U.S. shipping rates.I want to ship things correctly with no issues.I should also say most of my items are low end.Could any one offer any help?

I received an email saying that the delivery was attempted and information left on where to pick up my package, but I was home the entire day. No attempt was made and no note was left on where to pick up my package. What do I do now?

Since I will never purchase items from sellers using the global shipping program, because of the ridiculous cost and the extra time it takes the package to arrive, I have tried to figure out how to eliminate these sellers when I am doing a search. I have gone into advanced search and I have had no luck Can anyone tell me if there is any way to do this? Thank you

winogrod

From my point of view, a buyer should not learn that a seller is not combining the cost of s&h only after commiting to buy multiple items - this is not fair.

Hi i generally ship my orsers from the usa. i have been searching the Canada Post site and it wont bring up rates to the usa. What are the small packet fees both tracked and not tracked ? thanks

I have a fly reel that I need repaired and would like to ship from Canada to the USA. When I have sold things on Ebay I used the ebay Canada Post app and felt like I got a better deal. Can I use that for my broken fishing reel

Hi I know this is redundant, but I've been off of Ebay for a few months. They eliminated Light Packet with this new system but it still shows up on my listing as an option for shipping. A number of listings I placed had this listed as my shipping option. All I can see is a reference to Jan 15th 2018 as being the end of Small Packet USA offered at a discount. I see no notice of new pricing and Light is still offered on the template. Please enlighten me.

How do I get this to work? I am certain I have the correct shipment methods. Previous auctions had worked and I am using those templates. Did eBay change something. Normally I can figure these changes out. I use the Canada Post shipping calculator

Can I offer local pick up only? Do I have to ship items?

How long does my package stay in Kentucky and how can I track it if it ever leaves there?

j0rmungandr

So far Canada post is unhelpful, which is sort of reasonable, they suggest the seller might've given me the wrong tracking number. Unfortunately for me the seller in China isn't responding to any eBay messages I send, though I have waited two business days. eBay won't let me open an "Item not arrived" complaint yet, given we're still in the possible delivery window. What is my next step? Do I have to wait until the delivery window passes, or the seller responds or wait and hope they did give me the wrong tracking information? The tracking# in question is LM127340249CN

hi im very new here and would like to no what COLLECT FOR PICK UP means?in the tracking your package section

One of my items was sold to USA. I tried to print my shipping label on eBay/Shippo. However, it said that "You must include one signed original and two copies of a commercial invoice along with your label." My first question is where I should print the commercial invoice. The "Sold" under my eBay, there is no option for printing an invoice. My second question is how to deal with the three copies of invoices. I know that I need to stick the shipping label to my package. Consequently, should I need to put the invoices in a Ziploc bag and apply it to my package as well? Thank you.

Hello! I am a new member in eBay. I saw this game that said buy it now, I really wanted it and paid it via Paypal. The seller has some communication, since I filled out the wrong address and he asked me to correct the address. Other that, I received zero messages regarding the my order. Under my purchase history, the status of my order has been "Paid but not shipped" since the date (Dec19, 2017) I purchased it. It has been two weeks, my order still hasn't been shipped. The estimated delivery is Wed, Dec 27 - Tue, Jan 16, should I wait for my order until Jan 16 and then contact the seller and ebay to cancel the order? Thank you in advance.

Hello! I'm in Canada. Sold item to US. Shipped by Expedited parcel . Now tracking ( on both sites :Canada Post and USPS) shows that item was delivered to the same zip code as the buyer's zip code. Today customer reaches out saying that the package had not been received. Buyer opened case with eBay - claims she did not received the item and asking for a full return. She said that she called to the post office and was told : parcel was delivered to the wrong address and that she may not get it because the mail carrier may not be able to get it back. People in the wrong house deny it. I did ship this parcel by EXPEDITED International parcel. Which means that receiver must sign on delivery. But she said that postal office manager told her that this parcel sent with a tracking number only, not a signature. It wasn't my fault. I double check shipping details, sent her copy of shipping label and receipt What can i do?

shoppersessence

Using a shipping option without tracking number, a dishonest buyers may deny he or she has received the shipment. However, with tracking number, shipping fee sometimes is more expensive than my item for sale. This will make my item unattractive. I am wondering how experienced sellers handle their shipping fee. Thanks.

I have a customer who purchased 2 1930 vacuum tubes and wants them sent to Korea.He paid the shipping for light packet USA.I want to have a tracking number as well as insurance and make sure he is allowed to import those items and they are nonrestrictive.

premium-audio-tubes

Ebay states sellers should only charge actual fees for shipping.Wait eBay takes ten percent so I am losing money charging actual shipping rates but not due toi my greed but due to e bays fees on shipping.,It is impossible without loosing money.Thanks and we should all explain to the customer we would love to provide cheaper shipping rates we would like to follow e bays suggestions but they suggestion is without due diligence.Ebay make s charging actual rates impossible.

I have Some question about shipping to Canada... And I found no explanation to: 1. Why I order in May and receive my package at the end of October. 2. Why my package arrives from anywhere in a world to Canada withing 7 days and holds at customs for 3-4 months.. 3. Why when i order to delivery to US address, I got it in three to five days. The only reasonable answer to all those questions - Huge delay is nothing but market protection tool !!! As more and more people buying from abroad, Canadian giant corporations refuses to reduce prices and would like to sell us the same stuff but for triple amount. So, to all Canadian retailers - make price competitive. but until it happens, I am buying all stuff from abroad.

Does anyone know how to fix the issue of the shipping calculator (Shipping and Payment tab) not being able to calculate postage for multiple items(Canada, US or by Country)? When you select 2 or more of an item you get the error message "Shipping cost cannot be calculated Please enter a valid postal code." or the other variation, mailing options chosen at the time the listing was created are not available or displayed. This is something that has started to happen recently and in speaking to eBay they had no solution and said they would get back to me. So far no response. This appears to be an issue mostly on dot ca. In creating the original listing no error messages display other than item weight is too high for that service. Remove that option and you're good to go. Have noted on listings for customers that if you have problems with the shipping calculator please contact me, but this shouldn't really be necessary. Any suggestions or a fix would be greatly appreciated. CM

So when I was in the UK I used to use normal stamps to post my parcels without any troubles. Now I'm thinking of doing the same, but wouldn't buy that $100 coil of stamps (50 oversized mail rate stamps) before asking if it's a good idea or not. Many of my items can qualify as an oversized lettermail so I don't want to pay 5 times more than I should (you know, Shippo). Has anyone done the same? Thanks!

I made an offer on an item, where the shipping cost just below the posting was reasonable. When my offer was accepted I went to pay for it. And the shipping then was about 4X higher than below the posting. The seller in the typed description below had indicated this (much) higher shipping cost. So I checked what it would be if I bought it outright, and it showed the lower shipping cost. So, I thought the ebay shipping cost would apply. Has anyone dealt with this? I don't understand why the much higher shipping cost. It's for a figurine, shipping from Argentina internationally. I'm wondering if this just a money grab by the seller, and that ebay's price is the actual one ... . Thanks
