I can't fathom why there would be such a difference in prices though. If it's purchased in Canada and shipped to a Canadian address then it shouldn't cost so much, but it does. It's like they doubled the price of the book and then added an astronomical shipping cost. I can see it costing a lot if it's purchased in the US and then shipped to Canada because the rates for shipping to Canada have gone up so much in the last few years.
Early today I posted to her after cking the Uk/ US and Canada. I was floored by the difference. USPS cost to ship the book to her location for $24.95 using a Flat Rate Priority padded envelope. ( cheapest method due to wt of book ). International rates are unreal. Had a postal guy tell me " well they just aren't around the corner so it costs."
Have made this a sticky thread so it will be easier to find.
MrsSmeej - I tried to edit my message but then got interrupted by Andy phoning me from up North - by the way that good lookin' guy you married? Hubba Hubba!
ooops - okay maybe not the drooly face as that is kind of perverted at my age, but how about this one?
Hello Sailor!
Neesy dear, forgive me if I do not tell him that...
If I did, I'd have to buy the guy a bigger hat.
Not that I am disagreeing... He is kinda cute.
And he's even better looking when he wears a suit.
Hey ya'll I posted my thoughts and pics in the other thread before I saw this one! Don't worry, I will NOT be plastering my face in two different threads!

Here he is with Nomik and Neesy (moi as Miss Piggy says) - he wasn't such a bad old dude but he did have a slightly boozy smell to him
Are you telling these fine folks the WHOLE story here?
I could make something up!Are you telling these fine folks the WHOLE story here?
So he had a creepy gift shop in there....we had some Boone’s with him and Neesy got his digits ....
That'll do. I'll throw in the tiny fact that he yelled obscenities at you guys before this happened!
Yea but he was VERY apologetic

.....poor old sod was drunk and trying to defend his home from people like us! I’m sure Stephen Kong would’ve had some choice words if we HAD entered his home.
Postage rates within Canada are bad. I sent my granddaughter 6 Barbie dresses, out of their packaging and in an 8 x 12 x 2 inch box. Cost from B C to Ontario was $41.00,. It was sent regular standard mail, no extras and took 5 weeks to get there! I think that is awful.
My boss ordered Chinese for us today and I’m happy, but I feel spoiled by the Oriental Jade! That was a stellar Chinese restaurant.

Sounds like highway robbery - plus the Post Office cut way back on door to door delivery and gave us those community mailboxes.
They do have some cool shark stamps however!
Hey Robert Gray - you like sharks don't you?

On an intellectual level and from the safety of dry land... yes.
I love sharks on an intellectual level as well, although that sounds like an oxymoronic phrase. There have already been several attacks on the East coast this year, so stay out of the wataah!On an intellectual level and from the safety of dry land... yes.
Swiftdog was going swimming with them I think...
Good to see you! You’re a wee bit crazy for doing that but I want pics and stories! Also, why weren’t you at the Kon? You aren’t that far from Bangor last I checked.
