Agreed, it will just sit and sit and sit.

Even after this lockout is over there will be delays due to the bulk of mail to be delivered.

I guess you could use an alternate service like FedEx or Purolator or something, I'm not sure how much they cost though.

It will be over quickly though as they will be legislated back to work.

How does this effect Ebay sales from US to Canada? This month my friend and I have been shipping quite a few regular white envelopes of cards to Canada but have yet to hear of any complaints of not receiving the cards.

I havn't recieved a single piece of mail all week... I'm guessing the stuff you got out hasn't reached anyone and they are probably just being patient.

I would hope that anyone in Canada that is expecting something in the mail is at least somewhat aware of the situation.

I use my Purolator account at work (about 3 bucks to the states)....otherwise it's 20+ from my job to another CITY in the SAME province -_- So no, there's not any choices unless you make a 250+ trade...even then :/

I just received Notice that the USPS is suspending all mail to canada starting at midnight tonight and it will last at least a week.

Everybody make sure and get your stuff out today as it seems this is getting serious.

Dang!

I'll never be able to finish my darn LEDless Dredge

LGSs are too crappy to have the right stuff and the players are too much into T2 to even have dredge cards, or even legacy cards for that matter :///

Edit: French mistakes... only drank 2 Sleeman and it's already kicking in :P
