Hi everyone...This is Ira Grossman from eBay's Shipping team. I hope you are having a restful and relaxing summer.
Back in May, we introduced the Canada Post-eBay Flat Rate Box to the eBay Community, with three convenient flat rates for your shipping needs: Regional and National (shipments within Canada) and USA (shipments to the United States).
We also launched the Flat Rate Box with limited time introductory pricing in effect until August 14, 2008. There's less than one month left to take advantage of the following discounted Flat Rate Box rates:
- Regional C$8.99 (10% savings off the regular rate of $9.99)
- National C$11.49 (10% savings off the regular rate of $12.99)
- USA C$15.99 (11% savings off the regular rate of $17.99)
The Flat Rate Box can only be shipped with a Flat Rate Box shipping label created, purchased and printed through eBay/PayPal's label printing tool. The Canada Post shipping label you print through eBay/PayPal already includes the postage; all you have to do is affix the Flat Rate Box shipping label to the Flat Rate Box (in the area indicated on the box) and drop your package at any post office or in any Canada Post street letter box. You can use the Flat Rate Box to ship items weighing up to 5 kg (11 lb).
Here are some helpful Flat Rate Box links:

For those of you already using the Flat Rate Box, or for those of you who have yet to try it, I encourage you to ship your items through August 14 to enjoy the 10% savings on regional and national Flat Rate Box shipments, and the 11% savings on Flat Rate Box shipments to the USA.
Enjoy the rest of your summer!
Sincerely,
Ira Grossman
Senior Manager, Shipping
