Canada Post new postal rates

Ever since the Canada Post new postal rates came into effect my sales on Ebay have evaporated. I am wondering if any other sellers are experiencing the same problems? Who is going to pay $25.00 for an item when the postage can cost $20.00?
I think the people at Ebay and Paypal 'dropped the ball' when negotiating with Canada Post.

These people seem to get good reports from eBay sellers for one off shipments.

 

If you are shipping regularly and working with collectibles, you could also try an annual contract with Hugh Wood International, a British company working out of Toronto

They will insure your entire business, including your stock while at shows or travelling, your B&M, shoptheft, fire, water damage, etc.
