Canada Post s&h Kit w/ eBay

[angelove]

LINK: http://pages.ebay.ca/help/sellerguide/shipping/shippingkit.html


What’s in the kit? All the tools you need to make selling on eBay and shipping with Canada Post easier than ever:

Stack & Weigh Postal Scale: to weigh your packages

Measuring Tape: to measure the dimensions of your packages

eBay Packs: to package your items

Labelopes: to affix shipping labels or Customs documentation to your packages

Canada Post Step-by-Step Shipping Guide: to get valuable tips on shipping your eBay items

eBay Special Consulting Offer: to help you create a profitable eBay business quickly and easily


I'm actually looking forward to receiving this (a month later lol, 4-6 weeks) if Canada Post doesn't run out.

!!! You will need a Canada Post Item Number / Reference Number (like when you receive one of those notice to pick up a pkg at your local postal office). If you shipped an item w/ tracking I'm pretty sure you can use it because that's what I used and got accepted.

EXPIRES - June 30, 2006 *updated* - It's been extended! *grr* Still haven't received mine. v_v

If someone has already posted this, please delete mod. ^^ If not, hope this helps out other ebay sellers. Doesn't anyone find it a pain to always drive all the way to the postal office and get things weigh/estimated? *grr*

[thomas997]

How exactly does that stack and weigh scale work?

[Kasakato]

Used an old TN and it worked.

[kajan23]

Used an old one aswell. It does say it will be validated though so who knows..

thank op!

[fireice]

Awesome find, thanks.http://www.julli.dk/smiley/julli-afro.gif

[wlee]

thx :!: tried w/ a non-ebay TN :D

[TigerEROS]

First time sellers ONLY!

[thnh_jade]

I I hope it comes!

[tigger03]

can someone provide a TN for me? Pretty plz? :D

[newfbc]

You obviously don't need this if you don't have a TN kicking around.

Ron.

[DaVibe]

So you have to sell something to get this kit?

I'm always at the post office because I don't have a scale like they do ... gotta get one of those and this thing would be over (going to the Post Office to check weight)

[GerryDavid]

So you have to sell something to get this kit?

I picked up a scale at a yard sale for 10 cents. It does the job up to 450g, give or take 20g it seems. I wonder if the scale thats included is more acurate than this thing. I tried to sign up but it kept saying the security code was wrong, even though I typed it exactly as it was shown on the screen. I used mozilla.

[kajan23]

Haha, i got that a couple times. But if you look closely.. there's a dash (-) at the end usually between the second last and last number...

[GerryDavid]

I did that, I figured that was what was keeping me from getting it right. So I tried a few times with out it, after like 10 tries I just gave up.

[Konowl]

Yeah I'm a mooch.

If anyone has a spare TN lying around, can you send it to me please? I don't ship with Canada Post, but would consider it now.

[alexle]

I've got 2 TN's on hand (thanks to the eBay 10 cent promo) so the first two to PM me can have it.

EDIT: All gone. Once I ship out more items I will put the TN's up for grabs.

[Daijoubu]

TSCC sell a digital scale and it's working great, got it on sale for 20$
Not cheap but it's digital :)

Oh, it's on "sale" again

[wongstein]

I would like a TN if someone has one. PM me pretty please :|

[Ming_Wendy]

I like a tn number too. PM pretty please

[joepinchpenny]

I'd like a TN too please. PM me thanks!

[MonChoon]

if anyone else has a tn, I would take one as well.

[Amuse]

It says you need to print a Canada Post shipping label

[MrDisco]

i dont get something..dont you have you to buy a shipping label before you can take advantage of this offer?

[trisanna]

I would like a TN too please PM me. :) Thanks

[3comman]

need a TN please PM me too. Thanks

[Freelancer-Mountaineer]

Have been away from the computer for the past couple of weeks - please PM me if you have an extra TN!

Thank you in advance!

[intx]

Could really use this. I'm sorry if this request is getting old, but if anyone has an available TN I'd appreciate it! Thanks

[Akon]

thanks!

[theavonlady]

Sorry everyone. Just saw this thread as i was thinking about starting to sell on Ebay. If someone would be so kind and pass a TN my way it would be greatly appricated.

[stock_junkie]

I could really use a TN as well. Please PM if you have an extra, Thanks!

[awestruck]

Got my kit yesterday. Really nice.

[basiclogic]

Anyone have any extra TN's.... drop me a pm too please.

Thanks.

[Mehrtens]

Anyone have any extra TN's. Drop me a pm too please.

Thanks

[amsirron23]

I'm also looking for a TN please and thank you

[nivek7]

Any extra TN's, please PM me.

Thanks!

[ZenOps]

Used two old TN's here, seems to have worked *crosses fingers*

I never print up labels for the exact reason that I never know the weight of the item I'm shipping, and putting a two pound item on the bathroom scale is not exactly accurate :P

[dealqu]

Hi, can someone PM me an old TN they don't need to use? Thanks a lot.

[Zerius]

if i can have TN please pm

[oldbread]

I would really appreciate anyone PM'ing me a TN :lol:

[silvermark]

Received my kit today. Thanks Canada Post and eBay, no more waiting in line at the post office!

[andy_4029]

I want a TN, pretty plz?

[LNahid2000]

I never print up labels for the exact reason that I never know the weight of the item I'm shipping, and putting a two pound item on the bathroom scale is not exactly accurate :P
Last time I sold an item on eBay, I weighed myself without the item and then weighed myself again holding the item. Since my bathroom scale is digital, it was pretty accurate.

[OSG]

It would be great if someone could pm me a TN. I have a bunch of stuff I need to sell as I cleaned out the apt next door. :lol: thank you thank u tank u!

[just_For_ipod]

Since my bathroom scale is digital, it was pretty accurate.

um, what are you talking about?
House hold digital scales are usually not as accurate as the old round circlely
ones where there were numbers on a wheel. For the old ones, you could jump up and down, and then just stop moving and you will be able to see your weight. With the digital ones, you more a little bit and all of a sudden you've lost 20 pounds..
Now the huge industrial digital scales are totally different, unless you have one at home... your measurement is not going to be better than the old scales :cheesygri unless you also have a REALLY OLD scale.

[file888]

What's the TN? Is that any Xpresspost/ Registered parcel TN qualified?

[Midevilshadow]

Can anyone give me a TN? For some reason mine won't work. It was expedited shipping to the US.

[file888]

What kinds of Tracking numbers will be qualified? Any Registered parcel/ Xpresspost tracking number?

[bug]

Found a tracking number and it worked.

[file888]

Found a tracking number and it worked.
What kind of tracking number? Any Registered parcel or Xpresspost parcel tracking number valid?

[Warped]

thx recieved.

[Kasakato]

Hope to get mine tommorow!

[Kasakato]

What kind of tracking number? Any Registered parcel or Xpresspost parcel tracking number valid?
I used an Xpresspost Tn and it worked.

[file888]

I used an Xpresspost Tn and it worked.
Thanks alot! Buddy!

[Lawpack]

Is it have to be lately TN ?

[Lawpack]

If the old tracking works, I have couple and you guys can pm me if you need.

[dmdsoftware2]

I used an Xpresspost Tn and it worked.
It worked as is you received the item, or it worked as in it accepted it and told you upon verification you will receive the item.

If it's the latter, it will probably never arrive. I'm still waiting.

[Kasakato]

It worked as is you received the item, or it worked as in it accepted it and told you upon verification you will receive the item.

If it's the latter, it will probably never arrive. I'm still waiting.
As in it was accepted. It was a package I just shipped too so there shouldn't be a problem.

[silentsim]

did this a while back--never recieved an email confirmation? am i supposed to?!

[dmdsoftware2]

I have a number of tracking numbers available for old orders I shipped. They may work, they may not, but if you want one, PM me.

First come, first served.

EDIT: All 4 are gone.

[dmdsoftware2]

As in it was accepted. It was a package I just shipped too so there shouldn't be a problem.

Same here, but they want you to have bought some shipping email or something like that... so I think the manual check is to see if you did purchase that, if possible to even check.

[alexle]

received my package last week, thanks OP

[lang]

if someone can pm me a few tns, that would be great, TY

[Password]

Nice package... got mine. Thanks to the OP!

[fogo]

I'm also looking for a few tns.

If I could somehow repay in kind, please just ask.

For example, if you need some help with setting up your FTA receiver in exchange for a TN or two.

Pm me.

Cheers

[55david]

If anyone has one to spare i would so thankful.

[rickross]

wow this is some nice stuff

[ashhabib]

BUNK!!! It said I was gonna get a digital scale, and I got the weird weight bender scales. I used the example TN and got my package though

[Kasakato]

BUNK!!! It said I was gonna get a digital scale, and I got the weird weight bender scales. I used the example TN and got my package though
Where does it say you will get a digi scale?

[dmdsoftware2]

BUNK!!! It said I was gonna get a digital scale, and I got the weird weight bender scales. I used the example TN and got my package though

It actually shows a bender scale in one of the photos related to the signup. Nobody said anything about a digital scale.

[rickross]

lol yea that would cost to mcuh

[ashhabib]

I got an email confirmation saying it was digital, meh, at least the measuring tape is kinda cool

[litebrite]

For those who signed up for it.. how long did it take you to receive the package?

And did you receive an email confirmation after you signed up? I don't recall getting one... :confused:

[clarabeara]

On the ebay forums, a lot of people are saying that the scale is quite cheap so I guess don't get your hopes up.

If you're looking for a cheap scale, I got a small plastic one at Daiso ($2 store in Richmond) that is used to weigh food. Only goes up to 500g though but I usually don't ship anything heavier than that. Not the most accurate scale in the world but does the job since I only need to figure out which price range it falls under.

[Balduno]

If someone has a Canada Post item # they could spare, please PM me.

[cwiz]

Heres one I dont need 0330485000062445

[wowzas]

If anyone has a spare TN they want to give out it would be greatly appreciated. I have only ever purchased from ebay and shied away from selling because of shipping. This kit would be a great learning tool for a beginner. Thanks!

[Daboss]

Heres one I dont need 0330485000062445

Thanks, hope it works :)

[file888]

Anyone has a valid TN, please pm me. Thx alot!

[nounou23]

received mine last week with an old number I had.

thanks for posting the deal.

[chris.thesandman]

Well I used the TN from something I got from esso-extra and it took it, hopefully in 4-6weeks I'll have a nice surprize in the mail. Thx for the deal

cheers
Chris

[anna_d]

I received mine today - took something like two weeks.

[jayisthebest88]

Can someone please give me a tracking number:D

[amsirron23]

I just entered a used TN.. hopefully it works!

[TanGU]

Someone else have a TN to give ? i plan to sell some things on ebay soon... but after that date!

thanks,
TanGU.

[yana]

Can someone please give me a tracking number PLEASE

[55david]

I have a TN but it wants a username and a password
What do I do?

[nivek7]

What do I do?
Try using Internet Explorer

[LNahid2000]

I got mine today! I didn't even use a tracking number from May. I used one from a label I printed out in April.

[DBunny]

Heh if you click the question mark next to the field for tracking number it shows you a sample one to show where its located - I just used that one =)

[angelove]

Does anyone have any pics of this CP eBay kit? I ordered mine a few weeks ago when I first posted this but I still haven't received it. v_v *crosses-fingers* Is it a big pkg? Or is it rather cheap and useless? I'm looking forward to this but I really hope my mail man or neighbour didn't steal it, otherwise I'd be super sad.

Much appreciated! ^^;

[anna_d]

It's an 8x10x3" box. Mine was delivered expedited parcel by a Canada Post truck, not the mailman.
Here, I took pics of mine: (click for larger version)

[tvwatcher]

this offer has been extended (https://ssl.postescanada-canadapost.ca/business/intsol/ebay/order/order-e.asp) to June 30th, so there's still lots of time

[coriolis]

Hmmmm, I applied to one in early May, went through, but I still didn't get anything :o

[Amuse]

Are you supposed to receive a confirmation email after sending your info in? I didn't receive any confirmation email and I sent it in last week.

[Freelancer-Mountaineer]

Has anyone gotten a kit by using a non printed label?

[coriolis]

I didn't get any emails or nothing, I submitted, it went through, and its beem almost 4 weeks since...

[purple_rabbit]

I just got mine, friggin great!! Ty OP!

[ZenOps]

Booo... I got the email rejection too.

[dmdsoftware2]

Got the rejection letter as well.

[Handa]

Hey, if someone has a spare TN lying around, I'd be happy to take it off your hands :) :D :)

[HowEver]

They refused my regular tracking numbers, so if someone has a good one I could use, I'd appreciate it.

[TCWeasel]

Exactly how long after submission did you get the rejection email?

I submitted mine, using their example tracking number which it accepted, and so far I've not gotten any rejection letter.


Update June 5: No rejection letter yet.

[north77]

They refused my regular tracking numbers, so if someone has a good one I could use, I'd appreciate it.

Same here, HowEver. I used a tracking number from April 30th, and they said I did not qualify.

"In order to qualify to receive your free shipping kit, you must enter a Canada Post item or reference number that was issued between May 1st and June 30th via eBay's Online Shipping tool."

As far as I'm concerned that a load of huey. Those stipulations were not in place when I entered my TN.

[angelove]

Okay, this is odd, I got 2 rejections emails even though my tracking numbers were on May 16, 2006... wth? :mad: I used 2 different addresses and 2 different email accnts but still did not qualify for both.

Do you need to have a venture card in order to be elgible or something? v_v

You need to have used that ebay shipping label thingy.

They were. There were two stipulations:
1. TN from >= May 1st 2006
2. you used the ebay online shipping tool (costs $$$ I believe)

[dmdsoftware2]

Exactly how long after submission did you get the rejection email?

I submitted mine, using their example tracking number which it accepted, and so far I've not gotten any rejection letter.

A few weeks.

[coolspot]

Anyone else notice that the shipping labels don't show the postage amount... or any sort of transaction id?! How is Canada Post supposed to know how much you paid for postage?

I just printed off a US small packet airmail label....

[Daijoubu]

Sent 2 packages but none were credited, I guess the digital scale I got is working well :)

[zoro69]

Yo know all you are really getting is a cheapo measuring tape. The "scale" is useless, they'll all end up landfill when people get sick of them collecting dust. CP gives the lableopes out for free being that their happy to cut their commission collecting outlets out of the deal by gettting people to print their own postage.

Hi, what are CP's "labelopes"? ^^; Are they really free? My postal office lady (the one at Markville Mall) has never told us about this. In fact, she hides the eBay brochure from sight. T_T

I wish my area had a closer PO so I can pick up my items within walking distance.

[zoro69]

The labelope is a clear palstic pouch the right size for a printed psotage label to fit in. Its sticky on the back so you can but the label in and stick it to the box. A few lengths of packing tape will do the same thing :) Some outets will have them, but they can be ordered at the canadapost.ca business centre. You need a venture1 card first to be able to log on. If you don't print your own postage labels you don't need the labelopes. If you do print your own postge you're better off logging on canadapsot.ca then using the bug ridden paypal version.

Yup, but a labelop isn't *really* needed, taping is what Canada Post generally recommends (it also says that on the ebay shipping instructions), but if you have extra customs documents, etc.. then that's when a labelop might be useful.

They were. There were two stipulations:
1. TN from >= May 1st 2006
2. you used the ebay online shipping tool (costs $$$ I believe)

The online shipping tool is pretty much the same as EST and going to the post office (considering you enter the same values) except it's just for ebay only.

As long as you legitimately shipped using the ebay tool during the promo period you should recieve your kit. Glad to see that they are actually verifying the orders to keep it fair for legitimate people (i.e. don't run out giving it away to just about anyone who filled the form out but didn't meet the requirements)

These conditions were always there from the beginning of the promo, the computer just didn't verify the TN on the spot which is why it accepted any old tracking number.

I guess may be that's why I haven't receive my kit. =( I haven't had the chance to use eBay's print labels yet.

If anyone has one and be willing to offer one to me, please PM me!!! Much appreciated. =*v*= It's ironic that since I was the op for this topic, cannot receive it...

[wesellanythingcanada]

Got my kit today and I must agree that it is crap

[awestruck]

It was free. What are you complaining about?

[LNahid2000]

I'll post a couple tracking numbers on Friday since I already got mine and am selling a couple items on eBay this week.

[purple_rabbit]

Personally I like the scale.

I never had the intention of buying one, so this suits me just fine for my ebay shipments.

[tchai]

Completed the offer on 12 June 2006
Still waiting for the shipping kit
Wonder how long it takes to come. Hopefully not the 16 weeks or so mentioned on the website

[akz]

if neone has a tracking# valid pass it this way ? thx :)

[tkyoshi]

It depends, but you should receive it within about a month.

[wesellanythingcanada]

Making 2 trips to the post office :lol:

[tchai]

Order the kit on 5 June 2006. Got it yesterday by Purolator on 20 June 2006
Pretty quick. Didn't need to wait for 4-6 weeks after all :P

[fttn]

Please PM if you do. It would be greatly appreciated :)

[coriolis]

Got one yesterday :)

Pretty neat.

Here's two freebie Parcel ID's:

7210029001427962
7210029001419660

I'll have a few more soon, I'll be sending a few gifts in the next few days I believe...

[WalnutCrunch]

They were. There were two stipulations:
1. TN from >= May 1st 2006
2. you used the ebay online shipping tool (costs $$$ I believe)

It doesn't cost extra $$$ to ship via the ebay shipping tool. It's actually quite convenient compared to the Canada Post online business centre because all the info is already entered. The only problem with the ebay one is that it forces you to pay from your paypal balance. Unless you have a CAD paypal balance, you end up paying for the postage with your USD balance at paypal's very very bad exchange rates.

So, as convenient as the ebay one is, I still find myself using the obc at canadapost.ca.

[cil254]

Could someone PM me a parcel ID they don't need ?
Thanks.

[Slartibartfast]

Already gobbled up by others! Thanks for posting, though.

[Avalonthas]

I dont startup my ebay business for another week (i only sell during summer and 2 week breaks from school) so if anyone could PM me an unused Tracking Number, it would be very appreciated. Thanks

[Icetron]

If anyone has any extra tracking numbers I'd appreciate it if you could send me a PM with it too since this expires in 2 days?

A letter or an email? Everybody else had been getting an email; did you get a letter in the mail?

It doesn't cost extra $$$ to ship via the shipping tool. It's actually quite convenient compared to the Canada Post online business centre because all the info is already entered. The only problem is that it forces you to pay from your paypal balance. Unless you have a CAD paypal balance, you end up paying for the postage with your USD balance at paypal's very very bad exchange rates.

So, as convenient as it is, I still find myself using the obc at canadapost.ca.

True... it doesn't cost extra, but instead it actually costs less because of the discount. But, I find the process too troublesome. I've used the online tool to check postage, and then when I went to get it properly measured and metered at the counter it's usually less. Along with handling costs (buying a box or whatever) it just doesn't work as well as I hoped.

They should almost create an account where you can deposit say, $50 for shipping, and have it auto-deducted from your account when you ship.

I got mine today. It comes with a 'stack and weigh' scale, tape measure, some poly mailers and label sleeves.

It doesn't cost extra $$$ to ship via the ebay shipping tool. It's actually quite convenient compared to the Canada Post online business centre because all the info is already entered. The only problem with the ebay one is that it forces you to pay from your paypal balance. Unless you have a CAD paypal balance, you end up paying for the postage with your USD balance at paypal's very very bad exchange rates.

So, as convenient as the ebay one is, I still find myself using the obc at canadapost.ca.

you can actually select payment from your credit card instead (which is what I do). This way you get the CC points and I use my Paypal balance when I use my Paypal debit/credit card and get my % cash back.

Hmm...I've received the kit for 3 about 3 weeks now. Use it along with the shipping tool, works great, no complain what so ever. The shipping is even cheaper for me than the store. Always ship the same size and roughly same weight item for what I do...so I can comfirm that it is cheaper and troublefree to do it at home.

I use paypal for payment for canadapost now, this way, I know exactly how much I made on an auction, instead of having to up CC bills and then ebay fee...and all the trouble.

Does anyone have anymore tracking code for canada post kit?

[will games]

Can someone please be nice enough to PM me a shipped id over PM ;)

[champ91]

finally got my shipping kit today.

the stack scale sucks but the measureing tape and envelopes are very useful. It's free, so what can I say.
