    Default shipping to canada?

    Rob sold something on ebay, and needs to ship it. What is the best way for us to do it, and how much will it cost?

    IT's a little set of models, and will weigh less then 1lb.

    USPS. UPS is a rip off, as is fed ex. USPS will be over 20, but it's still the cheapest way to go. I literally just had to look this stuff up recently.

    Love it!

    USPS is the best way for international goods.

    I checked the USPS website for shipping from Florida to Canada. Priority Mail International is $16. First Class Mail International (what used to be just airmail) is $4.66. I think Priority Mail International is 6-10 days. Airmail is about 7-10 days.

    I sold stuff on eBay to Canadian customers all the time. I also had a girlfriend in Vancouver, BC that I used to send stuff to. If the package is less than 4 lbs., airmail shipping is relatively inexpensive. Heavier packages tend to be pricer.

    $20 is craziness- I get stuff from the US all the time, and though they charge me $15+ for shipping, the labels are always for like, $4. I've had boxes of books shipped here for less than $20.

    If you have a choice between surface and air with a significant price diff, choose surface- most of the time, it all gets shipped air anyways.
