As a seller, what's not to like about...

Shipped from Toronto April 9, arrived  in Finland April 18 (thank you CCE int'l) yet it appears the corp would have had my back for yet another 4 months time. Thanks so much S.J.

 

(As I have still not mastered the art of screen grabs, best I could provide was a safe link to a photo I just took)

Really starting to wonder where eBay is coming up with these "Acceptable Transit Times"? And you sent that surface. Almost faster now shipping Internationally vs across Canada.

It actually was not sent surface, It did go air but I tend to quote long delivery times to my international buyers, knowing it will always get to them long before they expect it.

I now only use Intl. Surface for very heavy items at customers request letting them know that it can take up to 2 months and that there is no tracking or insurance. Use either specify International Air or Tracked on my listings and if they want the item they pay for those services no problem.

Mildly surprised there were not more comments about the corp's delivery estimate.  My guess is many chose not to click on the photo link and ya, I get it.

Canada Post's published delivery standard for Small Packet Surface (International) is 4 - 12 weeks.

 

eBay's estimate should have been by sometime in mid July not mid August.
