It is no more effort than shipping to someone in the states.

I can't speak for others but for me it takes more effort to ship something to Canada than it does for something domestic. Filling out extra forms, having to go to the post office, waiting in line, etc. That's time I could be using to earn more money.

^ +1. The "shipping" they charge you may include any handling fees.

The only way I could see handling fees to justify that price is if he's driving it himself to the border.

^ I found a company that does repro clicker jackets. I'll see if I can find my bookmark. Apparently there's some niche market for them.

thats marsupialed!


Re: canadian shipping, really, extra forms? wtf. and that justifies 20 dollars in handling? I ship to the states all the time, pretty much exclusively when i sell items, and i print all my slips from paypal, there is no way that this isnt possible for US residents. I should charge an extra 20 bucks from changing the clickdown box from canada to usa

20,30 bucks above domestic shipping is a crock of ******* bullshit

Yes it is possible, but if only you use Priority International. With Canada as destination, it starts around $17, and goes up quick. More expensive for other countries.


We know you're cheap, and Canada Post just happens to offer lower prices than almost everyone else. Shut up already.

Get over it canada people. Priority shipping 2-3 days in the US costs between $5-8 for most clothes including delivery confirmation. To use priority to canada it's $17+. That's just how it is. If a US shipper uses normal first class they can do it for less than $10 but they can't get any delivery confirmation. To ship outside the US with delivery confirmation it costs about $30 every time. Quit complaining about the shippers as it's not their fault if they're doing it because they want to have delivery confirmation. Can't blame them for wanting that with how dishonest ebay buyers are at times
