Shipping to Canada Question

[bcool022]

Anyone use the prepaid paypal shipping to ship bubble mailers to Canada? Do you know how much it should cost and what you put when your filling out the form as to what you are shipping the cards in? (EX: the only option I noticed was "large envelope")

I was told by my post office that bubble's are "packages", so I use that for the envelope. Canada is ~$9.50 up to 8 ounces I believe when shipping in bubble envelopes.

Don't forget to post this in the hockey section. Those people would know more about shipping to Canada than anybody else and they should know all the tricks and costs. Just a FYI

PayPal.com/shipnow. This is how roger and I ship to Canada. Cheaper and the customs tag is trackable

that was a great help thanks! they told me at the post office it would be 9.50 usually its cheaper if you use paypal at home but I could not figure out what to put since bubble mailer is not an option lol

that is what I use to ship to US, I just was not sure what options to pick as far as service and what type of item I am sending, and also how filling out a customs form works when doing this online. seems if I put first class package international service and choose package it makes it 9.03, but I don't know if that is the right option

will post a picture of paypal.com/shipnow in another post

Remember to always say the items total ~$20 to keep them from paying import duties

yea when I did that it said 2.50 but as bigmo mentioned before they don't consider bubble mailers envelopes, they consider them packages..

You have to keep it thin (no more than 1 team bag flat), and try a couple different post offices. I have 1 that never accepts it, one that will depending on who it is, and one who scans it every time (that way i get a receipt showing it was dropped off). From what I understand you could also drop it in the package turn bin without them scanning it in, but I like the confirmation that it has been accepted by the PO.
