I think the big thing that should have been stressed for people sending to Canada is to NOT mark cigars or tobacco on the customs form. But, I guess we now know what happens when people ASSume...

But, as Jim said, it is the cost of doing business. I have had many packages that said candles or whatnot randomly opened and assessed duty based on what they saw.

Hey Guys.

Please check THIS link to a post I made in this thread a little while ago at the request of a Brother.

That being said (I did praise USPS Air Mail, and still do), FedEx has done wonders for my confidence in them. The 2 packages I received were unbeliveably fast and in awesome shape.

Leeroy, this is also in reference to your PM regarding instructions for shipping to Canada.

I didn't send you any cigars. I sent "commercial artwork" valued at less than $20 CAD. Hint hint

Hey, they were hand crafted.

The Good Doctor's package arrived today via UPS.

Very nice package Barry, thank you very much for a great selection.

Guys, I'll be posting the pics of the 7 gifts received to date tomorrow night, and I'll post the other 2 when they arrive.

Some very generous people here, thank you very, very much!!!!

Here are pictures of the 7 packages I've received so far. Once again, the generosity of this group has really sent me for a loop, and if the 2 still in the mail are anything like these 7, they're well worth waiting for.

Here's what I got so far, and sorry for the dark pics, they were taken in the waning late afternoon light in the kitchen:















I'll edit this post when I get the other packs.

Once again, thanks y'all!!!
