    What are the pros, cons, trials, tribulations, rewards etc...speak your mind as this inquiring mind wants to know:)

    From businesses or from private individuals?

    Never had issues ordering from businessess. Most now have a Canada tab that converts currency and updates shipping. From individuals, outside of some great folks Ive met along the way, typically are reluctant because it takes time and effort. Its where most every other countries differs from Americans in my experience. An American will say "nope too much hassle". A Canadian will apologize for taking too long to get to the post office:D

    From a business. Is there a price point you will get hit with import fees? And how reliable to you find USPS First Class International?

    I deal exclusively with Fendrihan. Buying within Canada keeps it simple for me.

    When it comes to new shave products I'll purchase from the "free shipping if you spend x amount" typically $50-60.
    Ive never had a order lost that was shipped via USPS although Ive had some long waits.

    I don't know abou Canada but when i have items shipped to Korea there is never an import fee regardless of price. They are looking for designer bags and similar items only.
