I've made several orders recently. And it all went good. However I didn't ship on the bus. So that aspect I can't comment on.

Just make sure to phone ahead and know what time the bus depot closes! I ordered from J&L a few weeks ago and waited to hear from the Kelowna depot but they didn't phone by noon on Saturday so I drove there and they had a sign saying their new summer hours were from 7-noon sorry for any inconvenience! When I went in on monday to pick up my dead clean up crew I asked them why they didn't phone me when my parcel arrived and I was told they don't phone on Saturdays! $75.00 thrown away!
