Given how much of the hobby's collectables are US-based, it's vital information.



I have bought from EBay buyers located in Toronto/Ottowa that have shipped their goods from right across the border using cheaper US postage for years now. I don't know how they make that happen or the real savings for them, but it's something I've noticed.
A friend of mine in Toronto drops cards off at a business that will drive them across the border to the nearest US post office and mail them there. Not sure of the economics of it.
