Ebay; think it's time to call it quits

no problems, maybe 2 of 30 items didn't come,just make sure to open a dispute on ebay BEFORE 45 days after the buy.

Some of the stuff shipped from overseas can take 4-6 weeks for delivery. When you pay $.99 SHIPPED for an item, there is a reason why it is so cheap!

And in turn, don't provide feedback. When I used to sell, I'd never leave feedback until they confirmed receipt. I've heard of too many instances where the seller put in a positive feedback and then ran into trouble because the buyer declared he hadn't received the item and wanted his money back.

This irks me. You shouldn't wait until they confirm they got it. If the seller did everything (pay on time, ect...) then they should get a positive regardless of whether the item showed up or not. The buyer fulfilled their end of the agreement.

I found this thread in a google search and thats the reason for reviving this instead of starting a new one but doen anyone else notice China -> Canada deliveries from ebay taking longer?
The standard used to be 12-23 days but more often now I'm seeing 18-25 days and then this morning i see this LOL... 50 DAYS?!?!
This is for a motorcycle front brake master cylinder.
Has anyone else seen an ebay auctions that says 50 days for delivery from China or increases in shipping times in general?

eBay has been losing more and more of my business to AliExpress. I find eBay shipping times have increased from 30 days to almost 60 days~! AliExpress has been much better in terms of delivery timelines, and also their prices are slightly better.
