is anyone able to get their shipping discount coupon? I usually get a notification on April 3rd but haven't heard anything. Also there are no items in the Canada shipping supply store.

I sell scrapbook punches that are made in China through Ebay.com. Average price is 30.00 to 50.00 US, and most of my punches go to the US. I usually sell a few per month, but since tariff threats..nothing. It is my understanding that there are no tariffs on purchases under 800.00 US. Am I or the US buyer subject to fees that are different now in comparison to before Trump?

It's dreaded tax time and I'm a little confused about shipping fees on our tax invoices. Hope someone can help me. On our Tax Invoices, eBay has separated shipping fees into Shipping Fees and Non-eBay Shipping Fees. I assume this separates Canadian and US shipping labels (??? could be wrong) and their sum is listed on the Finacial Statement under Shipping Labels. Only one month doesn't add up and I could care less, only a $10 difference in my favour - tyvm. My question is where is the shipping label tax line? I spent probably about $1K on CAD labels and would like to claim the hst like I always do but there's no figure given. Do you all just reverse tax it so 1k is $115.04? (at 13% ON rate) And is eBay keeping this money? I mean it's nowhere and I looked everywhere. On shipping labels page, it only gives a final amount. There's no breakdown to display tax. Thanks!

Hello, I shipped an order using a Canada Post shipping label I bought on eBay. Several weeks later the item is still out for delivery but the buyer still did not receive it. I verify the tracking number with Canada Post, but they tell me it is not a valid number, it doesn't have the correct amount of digits (too many if I remember correctly), and there is nothing they can do to help me until I can provide a valid tracking number. I don't know what to do at this point. This is an international order and I'm still new to eBay selling. What would you guys do?

The item sold and my funds put on hold for 20 days!!! This never happened before! It does not worth to sell anything here! The problem with delivery - Canada Post extremely slow, tracking was late. Another problem with shipping: if a customer pays for the shipping, when why do you charge my account for the same?

Hey, I’m wondering if anyone can explain how to switch my individual seller account to a business seller account on eBay. I’d really appreciate the help Jenny

Ebay.ca requested that I submit my Tax Identification Number (SIN) as per CRA requirements. I did send the info and got an acknowledgement back from Ebay. In the letter they stated "We will make this information available to you following submission to the CRA". I have not received this information. I called Ebay and they didn't have a clue as to what I was talking about. Said they would get back to me but sofar nothing. Has anyone else had a similar experience?

I am trying to enter the 'correct' HS tariff code 852349.40, but I keep getting a "not proper format" message. I have used this code before without any problem, but now it won't work???? I can only print a label without the HS code. Also, what happened to live customer service chat?? I am deaf and don't want 'someone' to call me as that would be completely useless.

Trying to sell some fairly expensive artwork on eBay, listed almost 1 week ago and it still doesn't show up on a search using the exact description or even the exact item number. I can't actually speak to a human or get any answers from chat bots. Can anyone help?

I listed A Game Boy Advance with Backlit screen mod that I installed, and Ebay removed within minutes for violating counterfeit items policy. I did look on Ebay beforehand and lots of these backlit screen mods being sold by other sellers. I think this might be becuase I included the word Nintendo in the title of the listing but Im not sure

IF send the item just regular letter mail without tracking number to prove it is delivered, how can ebay judge the time of it is delivered and will hold my fund how many days ? thanks.

collectiblezoo

if you estimate the dimensions/weight when you are filling out the shipping details for actual shipping (Not flat rate.) And then when you go to purchase the label & fill in the dimensions/weight does it matter if the original quoted shipping (which will be a estimate - posted on the auction page, buyer can see this) is lower than the actual shipping, does the buyer make up for the difference/can you charge the buyer more?

collectiblezoo

when you go to sell an item you can put the dimensions/weight. for flat rate shipping. After the item sells does it give the option to put the dimensions/weight again incase it changes? Thanks in advance ^_~

I read something on a FB group that made me think a bit... If something was not subjected to any duty before this fiasco, would it stay duty free or that 25% would be added on it? That's a question for the American side, not ours, but I'm really curious... The argument was that while tariff can be levied by an executive order, duty status are made by laws, hence not subjected to such orders. Some comic book artists are selling their original art to US customers, so there would be an impact for them. Original works of art (i.e. paintings, drawings, pastels, collages and decorative plaques) with or without their frames are duty-free under Chapter 97 in the Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS).

I'm unsure what to use in a shipping policy for small items that I would ship domestically as oversized Canada Post Lettermail (flat rate). The options to select are... Canada Post Lettermail (2 - 6 business days) Economy Mail (1 - 15 business days) Is it better to list shipping as Economy Mail so the expected delivery time frame is longer? Or make it clearer to buyers that Canada Post lettermail is being used instead?

I recently received a notification that, as of today, I’ve been marked as a Below Average Seller on eBay.ca (I’m based in Canada). The notification states that I have a total of 50 transactions (with 3 defects) in the global realm, but I also have 122 transactions (with 3 defects) on the U.S. site. Strangely, these metrics result in completely different ratings. What’s confusing is that all my defects are either due to items being out of stock or buyers who didn’t pay right away, leading another buyer to purchase the item. Despite this, I’m considered a Top Seller on eBay.com, where I can promote my listings, yet I’m classified as Below Average on eBay.ca and am restricted from promoting my listings entirely. This raises a few questions: - Does this mean my listings will only be promoted within the U.S. and not in Canada? - Since I don’t ship globally and all my orders are either to the U.S. or Canada, does this restriction significantly impact my visibility in Canada? The inconsistency between these ratings makes little sense to me, and I haven’t been able to find any forums or resources explaining the situation. I’m hoping someone can provide clarity on why these ratings differ so drastically and what I can do to resolve this issue.

Hi, I only started selling on ebay in the last year and this is the first time I ran into this issue. I only ever wanted to ship within Canada and to the US (I'm in Canada) so I set my shipping policy to show shipping to Canada and the US. However, I didn't realize you also have to EXCLUDE all other countries. I got an order to Netherlands Antilles and the buyer selected USA UPS shipping. I admit, I didn't know they had to be excluded, so I was willing to ship it anyways and potentially eat the extra cost, however now that I go to print my label, it's saying there is no service available. Why is that? Is it because there's an issue with the buyer's address? It's not like I can ship using USA UPS but why are no other options coming up? Is there any way I can get around shipping this item and risk losing a lot of money without getting a defect? Thanks in advance!

Hello, I've recently updated my shipping preferences on eBay.com to exclude APO/FPO addresses from my listings. However, when I switch to eBay.ca, I can't see these settings applied. It seems the shipping exclusions options are only visible and editable when I'm on the eBay.com site. I'm wondering if there's a way to apply these exclusions or set them directly on eBay.ca, or if they should automatically transfer between the two platforms. Has anyone else encountered this issue, or can someone guide me on how to ensure exclusions work properly on both versions of eBay? I’d appreciate any insights. Thank you for your help!

I just started printing my own Canada Post labels to take advantage of Ebay's great savings. Where do I find information about the discount program? Sold some magazines to the USA and got 50% off the postage, but sold a book to Canada and only got 20%. I sold the magazines on Ebay.com and the book on Ebay.ca. I would just like a little clarification on the program. Thanks!

I would like to know how to set up all my listings to allow purchasers to automatically get free shipping on any additional items purchased, with the highest single item shipping charge being what they pay. I am on .ca. Can somebody provide the specific steps how to do this?

I’ve been facing a frustrating issue with eBay, and I’m hoping to get some advice or feedback from others who might have experienced something similar. I’m based in Alberta, where we don’t have provincial sales tax, but it seems like eBay is having a hard time distinguishing between provinces when it comes to applying the correct tax rates. I’ve noticed discrepancies in how my taxes on fees are calculated. To make matters worse, I’ve been struggling to get clear answers from eBay’s phone support. It feels like I’m hitting a wall every time I try to explain the difference in tax regulations. As someone outside Ontario, I can’t even claim the HST I am being charged. Has anyone else encountered this issue with provincial tax settings on eBay? If so, how did you resolve it? Any tips on dealing with eBay support or ensuring taxes are handled correctly for Alberta-based sellers/buyers? I’d really appreciate any advice or shared experiences. Thanks in advance!

Recently sold an item well over $1000.00 on eBay Cnaada site. Weird but i tought this listing i recently sold had the blue icon Ebay Authentication maybe i missed to notice that it did not when i listed it. I thought all items listed and sold over $250.00 have to go through the Authentication process unless it was changed and not all items get that Authentication blue dot icon??? I didnt get an email notifying me that i have to send into eBay Authentication, so thats kind of odd. Now do i call eBay and ask them why it dont need to go through or do i just send to buyer, Since it is an item well over $1000.00 i would not mind if it gone through eBay Authentication that way i have my butt covered lol being the card is as described. Both of us Seller and Buyer are in Canada and as far as i know both parties have to be in same country for the eBay Authentication to be required on items $250.00 or more, now unless this buyer purchased it from Ebay.com and im on eBay Canada makes any difference of Authentication not needed?? Any one else had similar issue??

Hello, I switched from Canada Post to Chit Chats 2 months ago. I'm liking it allot better. Getting more buyers because of cheaper shipping. I find it to be allot more reliable and convenient. The only con I found is returns, coming back from outside of Canada and needing a US return address to recive the item back. If you don't have a US return address/PoBox, the return goes to disposal. So far I'm only selling things under $40, so it's not a huge loss. I only had one return due to incorrect address and it was only a $12 item, my only option was to dispose because I do not have a US return address/POBox. I'm almost thinking to keep shipping with Canada Post for anything over $50 for coverage on returns? Is it worth renting a US POBox for returns? Setting up the ChitChats Return address, sounds complicated. Any ideas on a way around the ChitChats return set up, on how to deal with ChitChats returns from outside of Canada? Thank you for your time and help. 😊
