mr_intv Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Every so often I find some sellers who won't ship to Canada. So I'm putting it out there for someone in the states who I could have the items shipped to and then have that someone ship the package up to me. I would of coarse reimburse the shipping charges up to Canada. If anyone can help me out please send me a pm, I'd be forever grateful 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Me and someone used to have this arrangement before, but its been a while since we've done it, I think they just bribe the ebay seller to send it to Canada now...hehe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cmart604 Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Or you could just ask me if I already have it....or I could just fire up one of Rev's accounts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

digress Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I have the same problem. Why do sellers refuse to ship to Canada? It's the same amount of trouble as shipping within the USA. Maybe it's the declaration form. Pretty simple stuff though. I ship stuff to the USA all the time with no problems. Often times the shipping cost is almost the same for small items. I've seen items go unsold multiple times and relisted and they won't budge. As long as it is shipped USPS there are no brokerage charges and the shipping is more but some items are just not plentiful in Canada. My main thing is an ADAM disk drive. Every one I have seen listed is always in the USA and they always refuse to ship to Canada. In fact they won't even reply to the request. I mean it's not like you are shipping decommission military tanks & planes that might be used against you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I personally have shipped to Canada a number of times, I can understand why sellers won't do it. I have literally had more packages damaged or lost by the Canadian postal service than any other postal handler in the world and I've shipped to dozens of countries. In addition, it's one of the slowest postal services I have ever dealt with and one of the hardest to get information from or file a claim with. It's unfortunate, but in my experience it's just really not good at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JasonlikesINTV Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 My experience is that if similar packages are shipped on the same day (one from USA --> CAN & one from CAN --> USA @ same address), the one coming from Canada arrives here almost a week before the one from here arrives in Canada. Canada is good at getting them out, but slow at receiving. I suppose the hold up could be on the USPS side, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Games For Your Intellivision Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 It is usually a hold up in the customs side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
