I thought the prices would have gone down when CP upgraded from pack mules to stagecoach delivery.

Someday my cards may double in value and then be worth half of what I paid for them.

The other day I mailed some secret santa gifts for my wife to the states. A ten pound box the charged me about $25 (coffee mug and Tim Horton's coffee). A bubble mailer with a baseball cap in it (so net weight about 5 ounces?) they wanted...wait for it.....$59. The bubble mailer was "too long" the clerk said. So I folded the end and taped it with packing tape. Exact same package was now $6.

A tip for fellow Canadians, i use a service/company called Chit Chats, they bring all my US mail across the border at very good rates.
If you have 1 reasonably close to your area it may be worth going through them and even mailing within Canada they have a better rate than Canada Post not major savings but still less than the post office.
As most already know the trick with Canada Post is to get it as flat as possible so it fits through their outdated slot template contraption, because if it's thicker than what fits the rates skyrocket

I have shipped "letters" of about 250 cards within Canada. I keep a kitchen scale and 3D printed slot of doom to ensure they stay as letters and not packages.

.. And a few hours after having posting this, Steven arrived at my house for a personal delivery of a box of cards. Much faster than the pack mule delivery service.
Thanks and hope you had a safe drive back in the snow!

You can get them to ship to Canada as well?
