When I ship into the states, from what I know my parcels to America always arrive quickly. No idea why but I thing USPS is a lot better at handling mail than CP. Sadly, if I am to sell something to an American, it costs me 6 dollars Canadian in shipping to ship ONE MOC MU figure to the states.

I have had no duty fees or of the sort when I have traded or bought something from the states, ever.

The post office told me recently that anything being shipped to Canada over 4 pounds has to be shipped Priority Mail, so that is important to keep in mind. I've also been told that Canadian customs is a lot more tedious than American customs, and they tend to take longer. On my end (as an American) I have to fill out a form along with labeling the package to ship Internationally, and the form asks for the value and type of package being sent, along with a short description. I sent a few LEGO sets a while back and had to say that a small box contained a thousand pieces, and the mail lady couldn't help but laugh. Also, if you can mark something as "gift", I say do it,l but make sure that package is going to someone you know/trust.
