Tom (et all),
It is the same coming from here. What I have found is that, 18-20 cards can be sent in a business PWE with cereal boxboard ot protect the cards for standard international postage. Once you get over that number up to 150 or so cards, costs make it less economical as the postage rates for small parcels jump too much. Trades of 250-300 cards can be shipped in one parcel for about the same cost as if someone tried to break it down into 15 separate PWE.
I encourage everyone to build trades with others to economize the postage costs. I don't mind sending three PWE for 3 trades with the same member, or if there are 200+ cards you want to trade, do it all inone trade. The trades for 50-100 cards that are worth less than a penny each (on either side of the border) are difficult to justify spending $15 to send.
This reply is hoping that trade partners south of the border do not get discouraged trading with those of us north of the border.
