[QUOTE="afantiques, post: 2218285, member: 71234"][I]Ship it Registered Mail.[/I] US Registered Mail gets no special treatment outside USA. It is also very slow indeed inside the US. Depending on the province, the buyer will have import sales tax to pay. This can be from 0 to 15%. I am sure they know about this and are discounting their offer to allow for it. Paypal is the worst possible way to get paid. The best is a Canadian Postal Money Order in US dollars, widely available in Canada and cashable in US post offices, although there is almost certainly some upper value limit. They can also be paid into your bank account. Canadian buyers can also pay with Canadian bank checks in US dollars, but ensure these are drawn on a US based bank, then it can simply be paid into your bank account like any domestic check. Virtually anything except Canadian Tyre money is better for a seller than Paypal. It is sad how brainwashed ebay has made people regarding Paypal.
