Ebay sellers not shipping to Canada?

[rhettyeakley]

Ditto what everyone here is saying. I do ship to Canada (and the UK, Australia, etc.) but I usually make the buyer contact me first and give them the option of USPS Global Priority (usually $12-15 or so) or my reg shipping fee w/o tracking (& let them know I'm not responsible for any item not getting there). I have only ever had one person opt for the priority and that was before X-mas and they wanted it faster for a gift. I also understand that even though we had the conversation should we ever go to ebay "court" I'd still probably lose, I will usually do it anyways. Anybody I know personally from Canada has carte blanche to purchase my items from ebay with no questions asked (as I trust them).

Once ebay prevented sellers from leaving negative feedbacks it became a pretty common Canadian scam to just get free crap from people by doing what others have described above, I was the victim of this once or twice but both items were fairly small and it was basically "the cost of doing business" up north. However, I have been very hesitant to started selling much of my vintage Hockey b/c I know half the buyers will be Canadian and someone will probably try something, but I may bite the bullet at some point.
