It is a common issue that we've come across selling on eBay that Canadian shipping options are not displayed for us when we are listing products. This guide is meant to walk you through how to bypass this issue & to ensure we can offer proper Canadian shipping services on our listings. eBay offers an amazing feature that lets you easily create a new listing based on an existing one. This means you can reuse previous descriptions, features, and other information without the hassle of typing everything from scratch. Usually, you only need to provide additional pictures for your listing. To make use of this feature, simply search for your product or relevant keywords. Once you find a listing you like, click on it, and scroll down below the pictures. There, you'll find the option to "sell it yourself," which takes you to the process of creating your own listing with the provided information. This handy feature saves time and effort.
You may notice from time to time that Canadian shipping options are not available while listing products on eBay. Previously, we would simply change the URL from ebay.com to ebay.ca which would correct this issue however lately, we seem to be getting errors when doing so.
We've discovered a simple workaround to address this problem. By using the eBay mobile app, you can search for your keywords and click the same "sell it yourself" button as mentioned above, save the listing as a draft and then continue on your laptop or PC. This method ensures that your shipping costs and estimates remain in Canadian currency, providing a seamless and hassle-free experience. Note: always ensure your eBay URL indicates “.ca” to ensure you have relevant Canadian shipping options before proceeding.
