| | I have always had good luck in the past with packages to Canada. But I am waiting on three overdue packages from Canada. We are talking 7 weeks now on two of them. A third from a trader I trust and a fourth trade hasn't shown either, but that one I know was sent way late. So out I am only batting 1 for 5 out of my last 5 trades. : ( | |

| Tactician and I have been involved in a cross-border trade for something like 3 weeks now and neither of us have received. Even worse is the Efreeti I bought on eBay which was supposed to have been sent out on January 20th(!) and which still has not arrived. [:(]

| My last two trades from Canada both took over 2 MONTHS! I have a military APO address because I am stationed overseas, but trades from the states to my address take one to two weeks. I do not see why it should take 2 months from Canada, but I guess it does!

This package is from a member by the name of Allard. He, being a new trader, agreed to send first. So far, no package. It's been several weeks. Slow Canadian postal service, or possible scam attempt? I don't know. | |

| I`m a canadian trader and my package take usualy about 1 week or 3-5 days when it is an important trade. I had a problem one time in one of my trade and it took 2 weeks that`s all. (I don`t have 1000 trade but...) It is just that the canada post is slow and not organized. Also, it is very expensive so people take the lowest price post and it take more time ^^
And I think my brother is trading with you, Gausse, it is Myrkel. He had a problem the first time he send and he regot the drizzt, so, he resend it last week I think. Anyway, he surely told you what happended. [:)] | |

Definitely hit or miss with the Canada Post. Remember our last trade kestral.ca? I swear our it was delivered by dogsled! But then again, you do live in the boonies! [:D][)]
I wouldn't cease trading with our northern brethren just because their postal services are substandard at times, the average seems to be 2 weeks. | |

| I sent a trade to CANADA on monday adn asked the USPS guy about any trouble with CANADA? He informed me that it is all about rolling the dice. Unless, the word CANADA is in all caps and the adresse is clearly readable. This was as he takes the package(s) from me.
Then he tells me that even when the address and the word CANADA was in all caps it still got returned.
I am spelling CANADA in all caps to get into habit......
So, kestrel, let me know if the normal 2 weeks goes by and you don't have a couple of packages.
Irony will be if kestrel gets one package and not the other. Considering they were both sent at the same time, same label and from the same location....time will tell....[:D] | |

Europe and USA got theirs in a week,but the Canadians hasnt received theirs.
I sent it to the French Canadian Area.. is it so isolated that they only have a postman running around?

| | I had four trades at one time from Canada that were all over a month overdue. Found out that three of them had never been sent. Which is a completely other problem I have been having lately. The fourth was from a great trader and seems to just be lost in space. My crappy luck continues. Maybe I should sacrifice a mini to the Mini Gods to appease them. | |

| | US/Canada trades are having some not-so-great times right now. Out of my last 10 trades, 9 of them arrived to me very quickly. One of them took a month to arrive, and my trade partner did everything perfectly. He had the right address and postal code, used capital letters, and filled out the customs declaration properly. Oh well, at least it got here. | |
