DHL announced today that it is shutting down pickups for packages to/from Canada at 9pm ET Tuesday, July 17, and shutting down all Canadian operations on Friday, July 20. I did not realize until receiving the announcement that the DHL pickup I had for a package this morning would be the last one to Canada for the foreseeable future.

In my Amazon.ca store, I have

• copied my shipping template to a backup to preserve the current settings
• increased the per-kg rate by 50% (except the 2-day setting, which I kept the same as I would not have used DHL for that anyway)

As substitute shipping methods for Amazon.ca orders, I plan to use ShipStation/Stamps.com’s +$9.95 fixed-rate DDP service via USPS for standard shipments, and UPS with DDP for shipments that that service isn’t suitable for. I didn’t use a rate calculator to determine that 50% is the right amount to increase shipping cost by; just a rough estimate based on what I’ve seen in the past.

I made the changes immediately as I do not want to use DHL tomorrow, or the rest of today; too much risk of the package getting stuck in the system before the carrier shuts down in Canada on Friday. (Hopefully the package I shipped today will make it through in time.)

I was wondering how this is done ? Other that handing over your login credentials?

I recently started to receive spam to my email address registered with Amazon.com which uses my name, middle initial and last name. Amazon is the only company or person which has that email address and my name with middle initial.

Either Amazon had a data breach or maybe an Amazon marketplace seller sold my name and email.

Do Amazon marketplace sellers have access both the name (as registered on Amazon) and email of customers who purchase from them? Most purchases I have made on Amazon from marketplace sellers have been fulfilled by Amazon but a few were direct ship. Does that make a difference?

I have a hard time believing someone cross referenced my name, address and email to link that email with my name including middle initial just to sell to spammers. Selling mailing lists however is easy and common.

I did buy an iPad for that purpose but turns out whenever I’m in sellers, and I go inventory and tap on ‘print item labels’ nothing pops up. Is this a known thing?

What should I or he to do? I ship FBM via my local postal service. I didn’t bought Amazon shipping label because my local post add label on the package. I’m located outside US.
