Can we get Canada Post Labels back up in Canada?

[vintageandglamor]

Strike rotation Saturday, so they begin accepting and moving packages agin.  I have some rural buyers that have no option but Canada Post. The highly discounted labels through eBay help make purchases affordable for them.

Can we get eBay To reactivate the labels for in Canada Shipments?

(and Stallion is showing the old tariff rate for China, that's going to be fun for people in the next few days).

If you are referring to the 100% add on tariff DJT talked about on Thursday (or Friday?). That doesn't come into effect until November 1 (or 10).

I didn't see the news article, but saw reference to it here. If it comes into effect Nov that would explain why Stallion isn't charging this tariff right now. Guess it gives sellers some time to prepare. Supposedly there are lots and lots of users of Stallion who are shipping China made goods (might be as basic as a tshirt made in China that's been printed in Canada).

I'd say for those sellers they should find another supplier... Asia is filled with expert sewers that can make tshirts.

I made a Canada Post label today using SnapShip (Solutions for Small Business).

It is not necessary to go through eBay-- it might be cheaper and it will be more efficient-- but it is not necessary.

Asia is filled with expert sewers that can make tshirts.

And a lot of those "Chinese" tees are made in Vietnam or Kenya because labour is too expensive in China.

Boy, those workers, yah know. You give them high enough wages to buy a bicycle and an electric fan but they still want more more more.

Sorry just wanted to ask a quick question as I have been very out of loop with everything with the tariff... I saw a reply above saying the tariff isn't in effect until Nov 1 now? Does it mean I can still sell to the USA until then without having to figure out how to charge/pay the US buyer's tariffs? Like can I just relist everything I ended back in August 26th and just continue to sell as is for now? Or do I hike up the shipping cost to US to cover the tariff...?

I have been away and then got very busy with work as soon as I returned, then with the strike I didn't relist anything since End of August.

November 1st is the tentative date for the NEW and ADDITIONAL tariff on China goods.

The elimination of the De Minimis exemption hasn't changed, tariff rates from April haven't changed. Shipping to the US is more complex than it was in August.

[zee-chan-jpn-books]

I currently charge $5 USD for flat rate shipping to US... maybe I'll just up it to $30 for now 🫠

The problem is 75% of my listings are on .com since I hardly get any Canadian buyers, and I don't have the time to move them one by one to .CA 🥹

devon@ebay Can we get help with this ???

[electronic_dist_intl]

I just purchased some shipping supplies with eBay on Friday and they shipped via Canada Post. Didn't even know Canada Post was rotating strikes until I saw that.

The Shipping Supply Store uses their own CP account outside of eBay Labels. CP must have a turned their online platform back on overnight. Now just a waiting game for eBay etc to do the same.

[mrdutch1001]

Just as a matter of interest, Etsy is not allowing the purchase of CP shipping labels, yet either...

We just all need to have patience ...and I for one, most definitely would not want to add a package to an already-existing backlog of packages...

I can wait...and having an extended handling time has always worked well during times like this...

I'm aware of several other sellers who were not able to/did not know how and did not get in under the bell to revise their handling times (en masse) that are now being dinged for lates. 

[femmefan1946]

Canada Post has been selling labels througout the strike.

I have bought a couple, but they go into to mailbox today. 

I'm still holding out on one which could have shipped by UPS for $212 or by Canada Post (label available but not deivery) for $68. 

[mrdutch1001]

Just as a matter of interest, My extended handling times have been in effect for the past 5 months(not trusting what CP could/would/may do on a whim)...

[nostalgicaftertaste]

Canada Post shipping options have been reactivated.

[byto253]

Now to get the evil scare off customers removed for Canada Post shipping options.  

[mrbeachman]

Hi. Is expedited lite showing for everyone?

[nostalgicaftertaste]

It is, yes. Did you double-check your dimensions and weight (not exceeding 200g)?

[jtg204]

Unavailable on listings or as a label purchase?

There was a known issue with Lite not showing up on listings before:

https://community.ebay.ca/t5/Seller-Central/Known-Issue/m-p/529091

I see Expedited Lite as shipping option and label purchase option at normal discount rates.

Some people were also reporting that Expedited Lite rates on their listings were very high ($17 instead of $6) while they were unavailable for purchase last week, and still high today after labels were available again.
