I've been adding my hockey cards to my trade list and noticed a good majority of the hockey collectors on here are in Canada.
I was wondering how people ship to Canada. Do you use the global forever stamp? Do you buy postage from Canada Post online? What methods have worked for you.
Any help is is greatly appreciated.

Shipping from the US requires US postage. And from there, just like anything else in the mail, depends on size and weight.

I've shipped as many as 180 cards in 9-pocket pages in a business envelope for just under $6.00 up to under 16 oz, I believe the postal site has it at 15.99 oz. All postage can be purchased using PayPal for the same as at the post office starting at $1.20, and as Dan stated all based on weight. If you go package then be ready to pay out the wazoo.

A small bubble envelope will cost around $14.00.

Actually, $1.20 (forever global stamp) is good up to 2 oz. $1.41, if non-machinable. Horizontal strips of 9 pocket pages in PWEs is the way to go. Use bubble envelopes only if you wanna pay $12.00 instead of $1.20.

I tried to purchase postage to Canada using my PayPal account and it limits me to addresses in the US. I contacted PayPal support and they told me I was limited to US. It was the same for both my business and personal accounts.

BPaul you may have restrictions based on the account. All I can tell you is that I use it EVERYTIME I mail something to Canada.

I'm trying to buy postage on paypal to ship a 5 oz PWE of cards. It's asking me to fill out customs forms. Are these required for PWE? I tried to fill it out and keep getting an error that a value is incorrect.
