I would love to have an explanation on how shipping works for the Canadian mint. but that probably cant be explained, lol...

So the real questions...

How does shipping work for online retailers from the states (ex APMEX & talisman). I'm posting this b/c it would appear so many of you are Canadian like me so this sub forums probably has the best chance of helping me out.

Every time I order non coin items from the states (except Amazon) I'm hit with ups shipping and then almost as many charges as the item is worth. Can someone help me understand how it would work and any tricks?

Do what I do anytime I order coins or stuff from the States I demand they ship USPS or if it arrives via UPS I just refuse it! Hope this helps you.

while I can refuse the package, that really doesn't help me. Can I choose usps when checking out of those two retailers sites?

Can anyone tell me the experience they had with either APMEX or talisman when ordering and shipping to canada?

Call their toll free numbers,ask if they'll ship USPS,better straight from the source than second-hand on a forum.
