I wasn't sure whether to post this here or in the B/S/T Forum. Since I'm not really selling anything in this thread, I thought it best to post it here. Anyway, this is just a quick public service announcement that I will no longer be shipping anything I sell to Canada. It's unfortuneate, that you Canadians will no longer be able to participate in my sale-items, but your Customs folks have gone over the line and I'm not willing to play ball.
Effective immedidately (I've been told by at least 3-different US Post Offices) Canada Customs will no longer accept packages in which the mailing label does not have all letters printed in UPPER-CASE. I won't debate the stupidity of this rule, but it is what it is. Traditionally, I will cut-paste the portion of the PayPal receipt and use it as the mailing label. Sometimes, it's all in lower case and other times it's in mixed case. At any rate, I'm not willing to spend my time to make the label correct and I'm certainly not going to hand write it. It's bad enough I need to do that to the Custom's Forms. This, coupled with the fact that I very rarely even brake even (let alone make a profit on my sales) has forced me to just cease any shipments to Canada.
