Yes, my dears, sending packages to other countries is expensive. There is a lot of paperwork that needs to be completed as well as possible inspection at the border (thank you 9/11).

Anytime you cross a border there are consequences. Unfortunately, the price comes out of our pockets!

You think Canada is bad, at my workplace if we ship something from San Francisco to Europe the minimal charge is $80.00 and that's just for a 1-5lb package!
