I would encourage all ebay purchasers and potential bidders that are looking to import an item off of ebay to boycott the Pitney Bowes Global Shipping program (GSP),
This can be done by contacting the seller that you are interested but wish the item to be shipped USPS, the contact should be made before bidding.
The latest example for me was a $10.00 US item, the shipping and brokerage is listed at US$17.50, the item can fit inside a small padded or regular envelope, so shipping should be minimal, also on items less than CAN$20.00 there is no import fee or brokerage needed.
If enough people endorse this, Ebay will have to change their policy somewhat.
Max.
