Canadian Ebay Sellers... Question

[ovechkincrosby]

Hi all,
just tossing this up to see what others say. I usually sell on ebay.ca, but I was wondering what other Canadian sellers do? Does anyone find either the American (ebay.com) or Canadian(Ebay.ca) site has any extra benefits? I was thinking that my shipping charges might look more attractive if I put it on ebay.com and used USD?

Thanks in advance.

I use both ... I get 50 extra listings by using .com.

I list mostly in Canadian dollars and let the US buyer pay the exchange rate in Paypal.
But sometimes I use US dollars on .com for higher end cards/sets when I know I'm going to buy from US sellers in the near future.

I only sell on .com. Not sure why. Just the way ive always done it.

Like Canadian Kid said above, I get my free 50 listings basically every month.

I list all my auctions in USD, and provide free shipping within NA ( I 99% of the time only do BIN/BO auctions, so I just incorporate shipping when accepting / counter offering )

I also have 2 mailing addresses linked to my ebay, one here and one in the US. I always have it set to my US address, as sometimes auctions run by US sellers that dont ship to Canada wont even appear in your searches if your default mailing address isnt in the US.

I, too, only use .com. I've been buying and selling on Ebay since 2000 and don't believe .ca existed yet at the time.

All my sales are in USD. Whether or not it's more beneficial, I can't really say. I haven't really had any issues however.

That's good to know, I didn't know the last part. That's why I was seeing items that ended that I never saw appear in the first place, thanks for the info.

I sell on .com so I can list in USD.

USD auctions/BIN do better than in CDN currency i've noticed.

I sell on either just don't use the global shipping service as the prices are astronomical and discourage potential buyers.
