The only problem with getting a PO box is the drive, depending on the poster's location. I think its about 8-10hrs from Edmonton to the US border?

And the cost of gas would be far more than brokerage and GST, unless you are close to the border.

I live about 30 mins from the border and the mailbox is just accross the line.

No brokerage... if made in the states no duty.... just GST.... usually if less than $50 they just let me go through.
Works good for me plus a lifetime membership was only $10 us plus $2 per package

Do you think I could have 600lbs of LR delivered to your Blaine PO Box?

John,
The address is 250 H st... It cost me $10 for a lifetime membership... plus its not a po box ( most people are wary of shipping to a PO Box) so my shipping address is My Name 250 H st Blaine WA and it costs me $2 us per package.. pretty sweet deal :wink:
