Buy/Sell/Trade Forum

Thanks to the guiding light of the Commish, I have had much success shipping overseas, especially Europe. If your country falls into my "Good Rate" group, I have plenty of cards to trade but mostly sell.

I know NBA and NHL cards are very popular. I've been downsizing both of those collections and still have plenty available. Team cards, Player Cards, Set Cards etc. Mostly early '90s to mid/late '90s.

Please PM me if interested. ~BOB~

Glad to have helped, Bob.

Wow, my shipment to the Netherlands took just days. Used my PayPal international shipping. Simple. 

Yeah that went pretty well...!

Meanwhile, I physically WENT to Canada, sent a small bubble mailer within the province of Ontario (it was about 2 hours of a drive from Point A to Point B), and the package took from 7/5/19 to 7/24/19 to get there. 19 days!

One way to drive it would be 181 km (112 miles). For ease of calculating, since I dropped off the packe in the afternoon, and it arrived in the morning, let's say it took 18 full days (18x24 = 432 hours). It went at a pace of .26 mph (.42 kph), meaning I could have strapped it to the back of a turtle and it would have arrived there faster!

To be fair to Canada Post, I sent a second (larger) package to the other side of the country (almost) at the same time. That one was delivered on 7/15/19. 10 days - to go about 3000 km. That moved at about 12.5 kph. Strange!

Maybe it has something to do with our " laid back attitude " , just a guess!

To be fair, I'm in Europe and had envelopes to and from Canada that took 3 weeks (same as .e.g Australia)...but lately they've been coming in within 7 days...one even took less time...I believe 4 or 5 days. And they weren't express shipments...but as 'el cheapo' as possible. Very strange!
