The wife, who works there, says the post office will.

Floor-mat at the front entrance to my former place of employment. Oh... the irony.

I am not sure what it costs to ship from the USA to Canada - but from Canada to the USA is usually about $15 with tracking (I ship them all the time). I was under the impression that it was less expensive to ship from the USA to most parts of Canada.

I'm in Canada, and ship to the US often. I also get lots shipped to me from the US as well. Best bet to Canada is USPS parcel, with a tracking number. Stick the pedal (or similar pedal) in the box along with whatever stuffing you're going to use. Measure your box dimensions, and use a small kitchen scale to weight it. Then go to the USPS website, and price out the options.

hey, thanks for the replies. I accepted 55 dollars total - going to Regina SK from saint loo. I need the experience, not that I sell a lot or anything, but I sell one or two pedals a month here and there; and it would be nice to able to do business with the great north. I am hoping it runs me no more than 25 bucks ..I hope to at least get my money back in the parts!

Make absolutely sure that your package will NOT be subject to "brokerage fees".

Some parcel-delivery services will essentially opt for a broker to pay any duty owing in Canada on the receipient's behalf.  The broker then charges a fee for doing so, which can be in the neighbourhood of $25 sometimes.

A VERY annoying fly in the ointment.
