Hey Mike,
I couldn't agree more with you. I recently had to pay an extra 38$, this is on top of just over the regular 30$ postage for the item. Its ridiculous. Additionally, when I bought 2 items from one seller, there was no combined shipping. Pitney Bowes expected me to pay full shipping for both items, (despite being packaged together) plus their add on. AMERICAN SELLERS ON EBAY... please ship directly! That's my peace. Regards, Brent |

I agree. It's outrageous. I have stopped purchasing from sellers that don't ship direct. I was dinged for $16 extra for a $5 ticket stub that I also paid $5 to ship.

I use the global shipping program on items that I expect will sell for more than $50...I'm getting tired of losing my item AND my money when it doesn't show up....and it was becoming epidemic. If an item in the Global Shipping Program gets lost then ebay covers it. It used to be no problem when ebay/paypal had a seller protection plan, but they ditched it, and I'm guessing they did so so they could make money as a middle man with this program.
What really pisses me off though is when ebay kicks an item out of the Global Shipping Program AFTER the auction ends because they don't want to be responsible for it. Has happened to me twice now. I just no longer ship to Italy or China...I've found both of those countries to be the absolute worst when it comes to "lost" packages.

Yes, always. I track all of my packages.

I have a hard time seeing how packages would get lost when you have tracking on them. I have yet to have a single issue with shipping a tracked item outside of Canada, and 95% of what I sell is international (although most does go to the U.S.).

Never used it, and won't. I have several repeat customers who have thanked me repeatedly for not using the Global Shipping program, and I am certain they continue to be customers as a direct result of opting out of the program. I'd rather they spend their money on more stuff I have for sale than on paying eBay to ensure they don't take advantage of me.

I used to be enrolled in the program but recently opted out. I got tired of being cussed out by buyers saying the global shipping prices were to high. I agreed with them but I told them I was unable to change those charges and that eBay controlled the global shipping costs. I didn't even know how much they were charging as I don't believe there is a way to see their charges? After a few buyers thinking I was being dishonest and overcharging for shipping I opted out.
