As an occasional eBay seller, I'll certainly agree with you on that point. I'd started refusing CDN buyers after getting "burned" by UPS on the brokerage fee (I guess after the buyer refused to pay it - they came after me - I similarly told them to "sexually self-satisfy themselves").

Then a CDN buyer "convinced" me to sell to him and ship First Class via the good old Post Office. I was sceptical but did so. He got the item (a piece of ham radio gear) in a couple of days and the postage charges were m/l the same as domestic US for the distance.

Oh, and, of course, there was no "brokerage fee".
