Thread: so i'm told there's problems with customs shipping stuff into Canada...anyone know?

Man do you read the news? There has been a temporary import embargo enacted for Canada due to the mounties raising the terrorist threat level. It's only supposed to last until April '06 though.

happens to me too! It took about 6weeks for me to get a pair of mirror aviators! I dunno there pathetic

The problem with Canada is that everything shipped USPS is first sent to Toronto before being sent out. So, even if something is sent from Blaine, Washington to Vancouver, Canada, which is about a stone's throw, it's still going to Tornto first.

This is one of the problems with Canada....sick, just sick.

well even still, it's not like the use bike couriers or something....i assume they fly the shit from wherever to TO, then i'd have to assume they fly it with regular mail to wherever it's going, that's like 2 days max.....even if they drive it from TO to wherever it's like 4 extra days max
