It's not too impressive when you come home from a long weekend and see that the courier has dropped your $3500 dry goods shipment off on the doorstep and left. I'm glad I live in a nice area of town. But they insure the shipments.
Yah there's always a risk with drop-offs. I live at the back door which is completely separated from the front side. Once I had a cellphone delivered and the guys at the front kept it and didn't let me know! I had to call the company to get the tracking number and after seeing that its delivered one day before, I knocked on their door and they handed me over. I was so ****ed!

I noticed that J&L mostly have the prices set at US MRP which is a huge plus in Canada. They are possibly the most ideal online vendor (not sure about the store itself but have heard they are extremely good too) in this country.

The store from is extremely small. I beleive everything is kept in a warehouse. The livestock area is a good size. Everytime I've visited there has not been any nice corals. They disappear really fast. Too many J&L groupies I guess

I guess their prime business source is online. And like others, I must say they do it very well

I seriously can't exaggerated more on the packaging. I was literally flying with happiness when I saw how they packed the whole thing! Even laptops/TVs are not that well packed :P
