Thanks for the deal, I've been looking for a new re-shipper. Anyone have experience with this re-shipper?

I don't get how this service will help anyone. I did a sample shipping calculation, for a 3 pound item, it costs $45.00 U.S. and up to ship it to Canada. How does this save money over directly ordering stuff shipped to Canada?

Consolidating several orders into one shipment, so for example, 10 boxes at us postal rates and then one consolidated shipment at international rates via courier. How useful it is would depend on what your other options are, and the volume of mail you use. The rates do look high, I don't know. I live close enough to the border to drive across to pick stuff up.

You can't get some things shipped to Canada, either the company does not ship to Canada or the items are forbidden to be shipped to Canada by the manufacturer.

Title should read: "Amex members only"
Misleading click bait.

Use MyMallBox, they're cheaper and located in Delaware (no sales tax)

Canada Post charges a $10 processing fee if you don't handle customs clearance yourself, but they don't generally bother charging anything if the declared duty is under $20.
