    I think CanadaPost must have put up their prices recently... *shrugs*

    About 2 years ago, I got my Alt Mirage from a Canadian seller for RRP & I recall shipping being pretty reasonable.

    I guess it's all about squeezing our wallets for every last dollar...

    I think they just removed the economy post category. I had some stuff posted from Canada a while back and I only had two choices: surface or express. Seller was kinda apologetic about it as well because they have no other options there.

    Yeh Canada Post is terrible. My only 2 packages from there had a shipping cost > the cost of the items I actually bought. Not cool, especially if they scrapped the economy option recently

    I've had nothing but bad experiences with the Canadian postal system.

    -Universe Blades, Dropshot (finally) and an extra Acid Storm for custom purposes.
    Had to pay top dollar for these at Myer and DJ's. Happy to have them though. Just need Sentinel Prime now to get rid of that completionist twinge at the back of my neck with all that's been released at Oz retail lately.

    Canada Post used to be cheaper than USPS, back when they had Economy Post. I got my Gobot Prime from Canada, too, griffin - and I know what a ****** he can be to actually get your hands on. Luckily I didn't have to get the thing shipped - picked it up from a store in Longueuil (the home of Hasbro Canada).


    Eagerly waiting for Masterpiece Meister
