Mail Service Canada from US, "Who Shot the Eagle"


I have sent several items by Global Air Mail Service through the US Mail. These items seem to take an unusal amount of time. I have sent 3 items in the last two weeks and only one has arrived in Canada. Your feedback will be very much appreciated.

I live in Canada, and in the past year I have sold various of my stereo components. I have now come to demand that buyers from the US must send me their payment by "anything other than regular, slow mail". I've been shocked at how long it can take for an envelope with a money order in it (we're not even talking about parcels) to arrive here. I've had envelopes take three weeks to arrive (and I live in a provincial capital, three hours from the US border -not some remote outpost!!). I could accept the rationale that it is customs who are responsible for the cross-border delay, except I have friends in Britain, and we can send/receive mail much quicker!
