Bad members,that can,t ship to canada

Well, this looks beat to death already, but I won't let that stop me!

First off, to my American friends, please don't let the fact a Canadian started this poopstorm make up your mind about selling, or shipping to Canada. For those who already have made up their mind that dealing across the border is not in their best interests, well I don't think there is any argument that supports your notion either.

The real problem is with Fedex and UPS who hold us hostage with their ridiculous brokerage fees. USPS does not need to do this, why do the others?

I've bought plenty of items across the border and I've found if you contact the seller, they usually will listen and even if they did not intend to sell outside the US, they are pleasantly surprised to hear there is a market out there and there are reasonable people who understand that shipping costs can be somewhat higher and understand the customs process. Sure, sometimes poeple get burned, but that seems to happen regardless of nationality. One of the worst deals ever to go bad on me involved another Canadian. (Import car part, never trust anyone who thinks a soup can is a muffler.)
