I agree with the majority of what you wrote, Whitewolf, However, I just found out myself recently that Canadapost has wanky shipping charges. I shipped two simular Items, one to Ontario the other to South Africa. The difference in cost ? $2.00 cheaper to ship to South africa. Got there sooner too! I have found that something that would cost $5.00 to mail in the States will cost 2 to 3 times that here in Canada. I think the Canuck 'TWITS' isnt the guy on ebay as much as it is the guy who sets the postage fees for CanadaPost.
