I live in British Columbia and ship to the US often and have not had complaints from any buyers at all.I live close to the border and small items such as tone arms I hand carry over the border and ship from Washington state.I find your comments about Canadians to be offensive.The only unhappy audiogon transaction so far for me was with an American but I know way too many fine Yanks to tar you all with the same paintbrush.Use the feedback system and leave negative comments if you are unhappy it will help us all.
Buying from Canada a hassle for you too?
I have had 3 nightmare transactions from Canada.
This ,I hope is not a reflection on Canadian Agon members,however, issues exist like never before.
I had a CD PLAYER held up at customs for 1 month by the FDA claiming it contained consumable goods.
I know the US does not want our senior citizens getting discounts on prescription drugs they need,therefore,everything must be getting delayed.
I can ship/get shipments from/to China,Russia and the Middle East easier and faster than Canada.
I guess it shows where our security priority is.
It's okay to mess with us just don't mess with those Pharmaceutical companies.
There is one common thing that does seem to occur with shipments fronm Canada.
And that is, they definately take their time shipping things to us.
I think most US Agon members try to ship the item as soon as they are paid or maybe a day or 2 later.
Canadian members like to take a week or so and then ship the item in a different manner than arranged.
These have been my experiences anyway.
I need to hear other stories,as I soon may not deal with Canada if this is the new norm
