Whoa! How did you package it Stefan? Bubblewrap?

Do they offer a first class option at Canada post to the States?

I use Fedex, and on average it's about $20 to most places.

I just package it in a normal stick box I guess? I guess fedex is the way to go.

never use a box! newspaper, bubble wrap, garbage bag, 20$ :headbang:
never had any problems, just put cardboard around the blade to protect it better and also so theres room for the label

I've boxed sticks before and still kept it at $20 for fedex ground. I have also done it where I bubble wrap the holy heck out of the stick and blade, then wrap it in brown shipping paper and ship it like that. Maybe a few $ cheaper.

Honestly, I can't stand Canada Post. The Fedex I go to in town has never given me any issue, they are decently priced, and from experience, they ship pretty fast.
