you do know that *everytime* a package gets opened at the border, someone is making money. Some broker middleman who stands by your package gets $40 each time something is opened.

Fedex is famous for getting their packages opened. I suggest USPS. They rarely get opened when i ship stuff north via the post office.

Yup, Fedex and UPS rape you with brokerage charges so they are more than pleased when packs get popped.

USPS is much better. Just make sure the pack is dicreet and has a $$ value to get it through proessing.
I get DVD's shipped all the time and some come as "gifts" and every one gets opened and assessed for tax purposes. If there is a dollar value much less chance of a check.

I understand that different areas of Canada are also harde rto pass than others.
ie Vancouver is tightbut central Canada is easier.

Isn't that funny....

My business ships to the US via Fed-ex ONLY. Canadapost (USPS) gets
opened extremely often while Fed-ex gets delayed rarely ever.

I guess it's backwards when sending TO the states.

That's cuz Canada customs is driven by *taxes* and the US customs is driven by *security* concerns.

Canada Customs can get duties paid easier through the much better duty/brokerage infrastructure setup by ups/fedex. While the USPS is archaic and troublesome with lack of a need or motivation to please canada customs. With the US, they place more emphasis on Canada Post cuz contraband can be more easily sent through them w/o having to create an "account" or source address like you need with ups/fedex.

The Canadian government is all about taxes (although they give little back to canadians), and imports is just *another* great money taxing opportunity for them.

That about sums it up...............Extremely well put by the way.

KNow what you going through. Canada customs are among THE TIGHTEST IN THE WORLD!!. Many long time Eurosources have told me this. We just dont have the volume of mail that the US has, so they can open waaaaay more packages. This year, I already have had, some HCG, and believe it or not ... some freakin papervar seized. The HCG went to health Canada, and the paper var was held by customs and they couldnt open it without my permission (it was under 30 grams). I aslo had some Nolva sent to me, it was opened, and let through. Go figure. The way to do it is to stay domestic bro. Sure ... you dont get the selection OR the prices you get on the international market, .... BUT its not that bad , AND you definately get your gear lol.. and fast too. Just gotta consider it a loss and move on. Where in Canada are you? When I leaved out east, I had never had a package seized. As soon as I moved out west, packages started getting seized all the time. Canada--->US = NO problems. I have sent friends stuff there no problem, and that is why many cdn sources service the US as well. Grab some QFS tren. People have been raving about that stuff ... I dont use tren, but if I did, I would use theirs.

Thanks for the feedback bro.

I am in the Toronto area (Brampton). Yeah, looked into the QFS Tren
however there seems to be a shortage at the time.

I'm happy to say I have gone domestic and will be giving
Profina a try VERY soon. Thanks again to all the responses
and feedback!
