EBay
Shiiit...it is soooooo EVIL!!!!
I am so addicted....and after the USD to Canadian dollar conversion...all of the items end up being SO pricey for things I don't need! I need professional help. On the bright side, I got strawberry tiles in the mail today....hehe..... :kam: *Jen* |

I love Ebay - I sell ,I buy, and our dollar is pretty good right now - it's the duty that kills me because it's like doubling the shipping costs..
But if you are lucky enough to want something shipped from elsewhere in Canada it's sweet - Goooo Ebay! |

or u can just get a PO box in the US. (point roberts) it costs 44 USD for a year. If you buy a shitload, then it's worth it. Customs Charges you like 5 or 10 bucks just for looking at whatever they're proecessing. If you pick it up yourself and drive it across the border. You save sooooo much. But I repeat. THat's only if you buy enough so it's worth your while

Just send your stuff to The Letter Carrier in Point Roberts and they charge you $2 to receive it. Go there and pick it up, check it out, throw it in your car and drive it back. I bought and sold 26 snowboards this way and ended up making money! :c-tard: |

HAHA yeah, winston, that works. With a PO Box, all incoming packages have to be setn via the US Post. I've got a similar setup with packages for me gettin accepted at TSB Shipping down there. lol
One of the perks of being a shipper/customs clearance guy at work! |

Just make sure you do a bit of research, know how much you are willing to spend and be disciplined enough to back away if it goes past your set limit.
I was caught up in one auction and lost it in a mini bidding war with another buyer and got pissed off. A few hours later the same seller listed the same item again and I got it for $0.99 instead of the $40 I wanted to spend a few hours ago. |
