    I'm just working my first international trade with a BA in Canada and neither of us has shipped across the border before. Any advice, tips, or suggestions? Thanks so much!

    Be careful. I know there are quite a few BAs who have encountered problems when shipping across the US/Canada border

    I would see if I could pick the brain of someone north of the border that has good experience trading to the states. It is far more tricky than one would imagine.

    Yeah, a quick search of the forums shows it has been very rough as of late getting trades back and forth across the border, lots of customs issues. Certainly nothing id be interested in partaking in, and I can nearly pee on Canada from my deck (not that id want to, I love you quebs - you just need to learn how to drive)

    I've done many International trades and have only ever had one issue with a package I shipped to Canada so be careful.

    I assume your shipping Usps?
