I bought (at auction) from Preowned Electronics
http://www.preowned.com
and the only way they would deal with Canada was if
you had a FedEx account.
A few simple steps on the web and I had a FedEx
account. http://www.fedex.ca
Have never had a problem with them and although
slightly more expensive than some others there is a
minimum of (virtually none) paperwork, not like
others. Also I don't end up at the post office without
enough cash to get my parcel out.
When ever I can I use them and auction sellers like it
too as all I have to do is forward them my FedEx
account number and they have minimum hassle on their
end plus no shipping fees to calculate and add to my
bill. For things like PowerBooks FedEx supplies proper
shipping boxes.
Cheers
