Anyone used these guys lately for ordering stuff from the US? Any problems? I got computer stuff coming from the US that was not available anywhere in Canada but they only ship to US addresses so I had to pick a place nearby.

I always use them. It is $2.50 canadian to have them receive your package and hold it for you. You save so much money on brokerage charges. I picked up my new skimmer and return pump that I ordered
on-line, last night from them. I then drive it across the border. Sometimes I open my mouth at the line, sometimes I dont

Does anyone know if there`s one in Blaine?

Picked up my computer parts today from them. Interesting experience. You're right Bluetang. I guess now I know where I'll be sending all of my stuff from companies in the States that don't use USPS to ship to Canada. $0 brokerage fees. cool.

Next item, a new bed. Will save myself $250 in brokerage fees.

I got there at 4pm tonight and there were 2 cars in front of me. There were 0 cars on the way back. I wonder what else there is to do at Pt. Roberts other than pick up mail and pickup gas???
