Canada Post Strike Ebay Feedback. Please help!

3 replies
Hi warrior,

Do you sell to Canada via Ebay?
There is a recently Canadian Post Strike.
Some items might be delayed.

One seller leaved me negative feedback for the parcel delay due to this Canadian Post Strike.
It's really out of our control with this matter.

The tracking status is 'Labour disruption affecting this location; item delayed'.

Does anyone know how to solve this matter? remove the neg feedback.

Thanks.,

    Did you mean the buyer left you a neg?

    Are you in Canada and shipping out or trying to ship to Cananda?

    If you are not in Canada then I would just not accept any orders to there until the postal mess is fixed. No sense in taking the orders if the customer is not going to be able to accept them. Crappy on the buyers part if he lives in Ca, knows it was not your fault and left you a neg anyway but that is Ebay and one reason I stopped using it.

    If you are in Canada you need to either come up with alternate shipping (fex ex, ups etc) and change your rates in your auctions to pay for them if they are more expensive or take a vacation.

    Bottom line is even though it is not your fault you should not take orders to somewhere if you know they are not going to be delivered.

    I am in UK and seller on eBay. We had same problem last year where Royal Mail went on strike. But eBay blocked the delivery feedback while the strike was on. What this means that no one could leave a negative feedback on postage/delivery.

    I hope that eBay Canada would be doing some thing similar.

      I am shipping parcel to canada. Buyer purchase my item via Ebay.com. I am from asia.
      I din't know about it until my warehouse shipped the parcel and got notified.
      It's too late because the parcel are on its way.

      Yes. He neg me with 'Even with Canada Post strike was not a problem'. Before he neg me, I already told him that since there is a strike, delay is still possible.

      I feel that is really unfair.
      How come Ebay still let them leave feedback?

      hai.... Dunno ebay will remove the feedback due to this problem or not.

      I am sooooooo sad.
