I'm sure I'm beating a dead horse hear but I need to get this out. WHY oh WHY does it cost me to ship a package ALL the way across the States for $5.05 and the SAME diaper (weight) two provinces over for $11.80!!!!!!:banghead: :banghead: You have GOT to be kidding me! Does this make sense to anyone else?? It costs 8-9 bucks within Ontario (where I live) 12 bucks to western or eastern Canada and 5 for anywhere in the U.S. :poke:

Oh my gosh, sorry I'm in the states (until very soon, I hope) but I had no idea it was so much for shipping! :faint: I thought it was getting bad here... I guess I'd better stop complaining.

This is totally frustrating, i feel your pain. I found last x-mas that it cost very little more to send a big heavy box than it does to send a little package with only a couple of things.

It really sucks. Anyone else just not bother buying/selling dipes once you consider how much it's gonna cost to ship?!?!?

Weird. I don't know why it would cost more to ship withIN Canada. You would think it would be cheaper since it's not going over the border or anything.

It is ridiculous. It makes it difficult for both customers and businesses. I sent a small envelope with 3 bio soft liners within Ontario and it cost $8.00!!!!

The reason I have been told is that we just don't have the same volume of people/packages as the US. Still doesn't make me feel better. I often find shipping cheaper with greyhound or DHS

And given how low you have to price the diapers in order to sell them it really hurts. You have to really really want to sell for it to be worth it.

Yup. It sucks. Between the ridiculous cost of shipping and the vast number of sellers here who won't sell to Canadians, it's pretty discouraging. I'm trying to meet up with more ocal CDing moms and sell locally instead.
On the flip side, with the difference in the dollar it's a great time to sell. I spold something for $65 US and it was over $73 CDN to me. Handy. Not so great if you're buying though.

When I asked at the PO a LONG time ago she said that "they" (no idea who "they" are) have some sort of deal.
