tracking required , not required

Hi , so I guess my question is why does Ebay allow and accomadate shipping options with NO tracking included and then hold it agaisnt you becuase the customer didnt pay for a tracked shipment ? 

sent item from Nova Scotia on April 3 to the united kingdom 

ebay delivery time advised under 3 weeks 

canada post advised 4-6 weeks 

customer did not pay for the $150 tracked shipment no surprise who would 

my concern is I had to refund this item by force when it is just not yet delivered..according to canada post It had estimated 2 weeks left to go ....canada post cannot control what happens once it leaves the country 

so why is extra time not alloted on these deliveries 

we are not at fault if it takes  a week to get through customs etc or more 

I am discouraged and will not be shipping international anymore 

I reached out to ebay chat agent for help and was advised the case would not close until May 12 however less than 12 hours later they closed it and refunded a shipmenet still in transit ? 

I am very close to leaving this site and takin my business elsewhere 

more importantly I felt assured after talkign to chat agent that the appropriate wait time would be be passed first but no ....straight out lied to

Re: tracking required , not required

Do you ship International?
From Canada it's ridiculous not talking US but to Malaysia, UK etc tracking can make shipping over $100
This results in zero sales
Been there done that .....
Ebay let's us offer tracking or no tacking by selection....if we are always accountable if no tracking as a buyer
I just don't think they should even offer a Non tracked service ...
Anyhow moving forward I physically ship Air
Buy list the option as ground
Because ebay doesn't allot enough time to foreign countries
And tracking is ridiculous and unpredictable from Japan to United Kingdom Mexico etc
I have shipped literally everywhere
Thanks for your input
