John,

This was the small Yak. Is that considered too large for USPS? In retrospect, I can see where it might be. I did make a point that I wanted to avoid large brokerage fees. Canadian postal services are VERY reasonable in this regard. Many times, the parcel just shows up at the door. This is why I wanted to avoid UPS. If Fedex is no better, then now I know.

About handling, this is a copy and paste from your confirmation of my order.

If that's the actual shipping cost then leave out the handling thing.

But we'll see when I get the item.

I appreciate your attention to the matter.

I can see why in some businesses, Canadian orders aren't worth the hassle. So much for "free trade, Nafta, Mafta, Kafta Bafta". But, I'm editorializing, sorry.
