Canadien postage

[wyliec]

What's up with that. I ordered four of these:

I wanted shipped the least expensive way. It took them about 2 weeks to tell me it would cost $70. I've ordered other items from other Canadien companies that weighed more and were larger and the postage was no where near $70.

They never did say how they were sending it. I cancelled the order.

I agree.

I think I would have done the same thing.
I sure enjoyed skateboarding in the mid 70's.
The kids skateboarding these days are amazing.

I clicked the link: It was $70 shipping for a $4.50 thumb screw? I can see where they make their money...

By the way, it's 'Canadian'.

I clicked the link also and they only offered me fed x as a shipping option :hun:

My business is Mail Order for the last 20 years or so and we would send an item like this or larger from Canada to the US for $6.50 and World Wide for $8.00.

This would be a box that is 6x3x2" and weigh 6 - 8 oz. Once you get a Courier involved its a whole different ball game.
