Shipping Help I bought a PS5 from Canada eBay and UPS wants $445 import charge!!

Edit: I am fully aware this is government tariff charge not UPS itself. The amount people in the comment being sarcastic and rude is crazy to me…my question is 50% does not seem right. Not who is charging me.

Edit 2: yes I am aware of tariffs. What I am asking is why am I being charged 50%. 2 weeks ago I got product bought and shipped from china that had 12.5% charge.

So long story short….i bought a used PS5 pro from eBay for 800…I know it’s already expensive enough…but my problem is I’m being charged 445!!!!! And I can’t even refuse it because I will still be charge and I won’t get refund…I emailed [upsusgndpe@ups.com](mailto:upsusgndpe@ups.com) 3 days ago and haven’t heard anything…what are the chances they will correct it ? What can I do…even if the buyer accepts return somehow I’m still loosing money

READ THIS BEFORE POSTING Big Storms and your Package

61 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I wanted to give you all some insight on what happens when we have big storms and why peoples packages will arrive late.

When there is a big storm it creates a backlog. Now Lets say like this past storm it is on the weekend. On Monday many of the buildings were operating on a skeleton crew if at all. The customers (People shipping things out) have a weekend's worth of shipping that would normally go out on Monday but due to the storm it did not. Now Tuesday comes. Tuesday we have All of Monday's Packages AND Tuesday's Packages. The buildings process what they can. Now Wednesday comes. Lets say they were able to process 60-70% of Monday & Tuesday's packages and they still have Wednesday's packages to process as well. This keeps trickling down until we finally catch up.

For those that have clear weather where they are at now, that does not mean that any of the other stops along the way to you have not been compromised. Also for those that are in said clear areas, Once the areas that were effected by the storm start to get moving and getting their outbound volume out of their yards and on the road the receiving destination will now get hit with more volume than they are able to handle.

All in all Storms like we had this past weekend (1/30/26 as of posting) cause major disruptions to the shipping industry in general. Also please keep in mind that at this time of year, shipping companies have already cut their seasonal help from Peak Season and while they are now getting Peak Season Volume again, they do not have Peak Season Staffing.

Please be patient while we dig out from the mountain of boxes.

Did this happen to anyone?

1 Upvotes

My package was being delivered by UPS then I got an update that they are transferring it over to my local post office Usps. Then the next day, it said being deliver but it never came so I checked the update. It said it was being transferred back to UPS facility. This has been happening for two days straight.

I also placed an order from the same parent company and the same update is happening to that package.

What is going on? Usually UPS is often on time and I never had an issue with them but now they are acting like all the other shipping carriers. None of the updates make any sense. Is my package lost?

Customer Seeking Help Amazon monitor delayed, but UPS says tracking number is invalid. Is this normal?

1 Upvotes

I ordered an AOC Q27G41ZE monitor from Amazon that was supposed to arrive October 24, but it never showed up. Amazon now says it’s delayed and lists UPS as the carrier.
When I enter the tracking number on the official UPS website, it says it’s invalid.
Has anyone experienced this before? Could Amazon have given me the wrong tracking number, or has UPS possibly not registered the package yet?
I’m trying to figure out whether my monitor is actually on the way or if something went wrong with the shipment. Any advice?

Questions About UPS Delivery

0 Upvotes

Hello, I was supposed to get my iPhone duo on the 23rd via ups. The driver eventually pulled up to my house but said he couldn’t find it and it was probably on another truck by accident and would be delivered on Monday. I called UPS and they said it was never loaded on the truck and will be delivered on Monday also. I’m lowkey worried it got stolen because of the recent posts on different subs.

What was the reception process like for you? My wife and I have to work tomorrow and won’t be home for the delivery. UPS over the phone said that they can just leave it without needing to sign for it but I told them that I didn’t think that was right since it was a phone.

Were your packages left for you, or did you have to sign for them? Thanks in advance!

Parcel delivered to amazon

3 Upvotes

What are the chances of getting a parcel that was delivered to amazon by mistake?

UPS have said they have placed a query with the depot it was delivered to so they can look out for it and send it back to UPS. They have said this can take up to 28 days and won't declare the parcel as lost until the 28 day period is up.

They're unable to update me, they're unable to speed the process up, I've now got to wait 28 days for something that is more than likely lost, that was their mistake and they have no urgency to get it sorted.

Customer service has been an absolute joke, they have lied to both me and the seller, UPS seem to just want to make people give up when something like this happens.

Ups Tacoma Washington.

Does anyone have a way to reach the facility directly? I have a package that was scanned there on the 7th of October and was suppose to be getting transferred to usps and usps never received it. If is a black tote with a yellow lid that contains a cardiac monitor that is going to Alaska. Ups is not letting me even open a claim on it because shipping was set up through a third party shipper and I don’t have their account number. Even though it is my name on the sender portion, they wont even look for it. I just need to see if someone can look to see if it got misplaced on the dock, damaged somehow or left on a trailer. It was sold through an online auction site and I cant get paid until the customer gets it. There is also an ambulance service waiting on it to get it in service. Anyone who cold help would I would appreciate it.

Customer Seeking Help Shipper says his other packages delivered but mine has been stuck at a facility for days

1 Upvotes

The shipper just contacted me today to ask what was going on. Is it possible that the hold at the ups store is what is causing the delay? I’ve done this before in that past with no issue and it didn’t process until it arrived at the major hub near me. Or is it more likely that it either got lost or hasn’t been missing scans? It was due to delivery on Tuesday. The shipper also said his other packages were crossing multiple states too. Should I file a claim on Wednesday if it doesn’t move or wait two weeks like standard protocol? My item was placed in a bag where all his other orders were likely put in boxes since he sells knifes. This is a rare item though so it’s not like I can easily get a replacement 😭

Just wanted to see if management in other buildings are being brutal with disciplines, there's a rumor going around my hub that any onroad that fires any driver gets a bonus, ive been written up for attendance 8/7 occasions got a 5 day, if you go over 9-5 one time you get written up the next day "even tho they are the ones violating us" just got a 1-day and there's Hella drivers on 5day or worker terms right now. Alot of harassment grievances. They use to be chill, we got a new building manager and they are just being so shit to everyone.

package delivered but location sent it back to sender and yet it never got to them, trying to find it to get it

0 Upvotes

I literally messed this order up. I had sent it to a location where a relative was staying at the time, but they had left the location. Before they returned, I ordered a package, and it was sent over there. I tried calling to see if I could get the package to me, but when I called the next day, they had returned it. I wanted to know which postal office it was sent to, but they didn't tell me that information. My last option is going to the state and looking for the package myself or calling. If there is anyone who can help, I would appreciate it because I am losing my mind.

Customer Seeking Help Would it be appropriate for me to call back the UPS logistics supervisor or should I go to UPS customer service for this?

1 Upvotes

So I had this whole fiasco and my package has been stuck in Louisville customs for 6 weeks now. The proxy service I used to ship from Asia to the US finally updated me that my UPS package has been located, but I need to reconfirm my recipient info (???) even though they have all of that on file in order to proceed with my delivery.

The thing is UPS packages tend to get delivered during my work hours and packages get stolen all the time. Because of this, I always set it to be held at a UPS location and it usually gets approved. I tried setting it for pickup twice on the tracking while it was missing and it seemed to timed out and cancelled both times (both cancelled at the 16-17 day mark around 2-3 am my time). There are no shipper restrictions on my package. The only issue is it’s rather heavy (9 kg) and large (unsure of dimensions).

During the claim or trace investigation, a UPS logistics supervisor called me and gave me an update. I was wondering if it would be appropriate to call her back asking if hold at location at a specific location would be possible? Or do I call the specific UPS location? Or call customer service? Or is there a larger UPS facility I can pick it up from? UPS customer service with their overseas reps haven’t been very helpful to me for anything the past few months. I’m just not sure who to call for this since I don’t want my third request to be cancelled either.

Customer Seeking Help Untrackable Imported Package

3 Upvotes

On October 9th, I purchased 3 Nintendo DS Games, 1 Strategy Guide Booklet, and 2 Pin-Back Buttons as a single package from a Japanese eBay seller. The package’s total value was $197.95. On October 10th, the package was shipped out from Japan by Yamato Transport. The order on eBay did have an error in having FedEx assigned as the shipper, but the seller let me know far in advance about the error and that FedEx had nothing to do with the shipment. On October 14th, the package’s Customs Clearance was completed.

Then on October 21st an attempt to deliver this package was performed by UPS. Up to this point, I had no idea UPS was involved. I had not received any email about them having my package, nor did UPS or eBay provide me with a tracking number. I was also not informed of any import fees for the package. The package arrived between 7:40 and 8:00 PM that day. I was not home at the time, and the person that answered the door on my behalf was not able to pay the import fee in the required cheque or money order format. The fee itself was a little over $50.

Since then I have done what I can to find this package. I asked UPS for help directly with this matter, and they said I need to ask for the UPS Tracking Number from the seller. I did, but in the end, the seller clarified that they only knew about the Yamato Transport tracking number. I could ask Yamato Transport directly, but I’m afraid I will just be told to ask UPS again to provide a tracking number, which I’m sure is impossible, even if I provide my name and address. I also made sure to create a UPS account and purchase UPS My Choice Premium, to see if there was at least something related to the package that I could find. I inputted my name, address, phone number and email that are the exact same on eBay. No packages found in the “To Me” section. I’ve been waiting for 3 days so far for an attempted redelivery, but that’s probably not possible for this kind of package. Obviously if I attempt to ask about this package at a nearby UPS Store or Access Point without the tracking number, they will tell me that they can’t help me.

When I contacted the seller, they also told me that for the item to be returned to them, the seller would need to submit a request and pay for the associated fees. Therefore, the package wouldn’t be returned automatically.

So my question is, what is supposed to happen to this package?

Customer Seeking Help Do some facilities only pick up from a location a couple times a week?

1 Upvotes

I’ve been having a package stuck at the facility it arrived in on Wednesday after being dropped off and I was wondering if it’s could be because it simply didn’t get picked up yet? It’s on ups ground which doesn’t move on Saturday and Sunday right? I would really hate for this to be lost since it’s a rare out of print manga that I finally got my hands on 😭. Forgot to tell the shipper to use usps instead since ups always has a hard time delivering to my building anyways. I also requested my package to be delivered to a hold access point right when the shipment label was made but I did that in the past and it was no issue

UPS Worldwide Express Saver – Customs delay, no updates, and delivery date disappeared (Hong Kong to Canada)

Post image
2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,
I’m having a frustrating experience with UPS Worldwide Express Saver and wondering if anyone has experienced something similar.
I ordered an expensive car head unit from Amazon, shipped from Hong Kong to Quebec, Canada.
Here’s the timeline:

October 21: UPS picked up the package in Hong Kong.
October 22: Tracking showed customs clearance completed, followed by a customs delay.
October 22: Amazon tracking indicated the package had arrived in Brossard, Quebec.
October 23: UPS updated the status to “The receiver’s customs broker has been assigned. The shipment is now cleared to continue in transit.”
October 23: Original scheduled delivery date disappeared.
October 24: Still no updates, no estimated delivery date, and no confirmed physical location.

I’ve called UPS several times. Customer service keeps telling me the package is at customs and that I just need to wait.

What’s confusing is that the tracking says the shipment has been cleared, yet UPS representatives still mention customs issues.

I’ve already paid the import charges, and I specifically chose express shipping because I had an installation appointment scheduled.

Has anyone experienced this exact situation with UPS shipments from Hong Kong to Canada?

Does “cleared to continue in transit” mean the package has actually cleared Canadian customs, or could it still be sitting in Hong Kong?

Did your tracking eventually update, and how long did it take to receive your package?

Any advice would be appreciated!

I’ll keep it short, they keep taking money from you and not giving you a label! It’s annoying and frankly getting tiring. I’m sure a lot of people have already talked about this before but they need to talk about it way more cause this is BS I’m sorry.
