I'm sure there are a lot of people like me that can only afford to participate here because of the low media mail rates. |

I've heard rumors of folks near the border getting a PO box in the US to use for PBS. |

Not through this site but I have sent books to Canada using media mail and its maybe a dollar more then what it usually costs on here.But then I don't use PBS postage,tracking or any of that.They have been saying for years that they are "working on it"should be able to come up with a way to do it. |

Michelle, our media mail doesn't go to Canada. This isn't about PBS, it's the cost set down by the USPO. I believe the cheapest cost to mail a small book to Canada is $4.99. The price goes up from there as the book weight goes up. My family is all in Canada and a long time ago I stopped mailing books to them. In fact, many if them come to the states to buy their books. My cousin was down here a couple months ago and went home with lots of books because of both the cost of the book to buy up there and the cost of ordering and having it shipped. Both Canada Post and sending into Canada are stupidly expensive. I'm glad we have stayed US only.

If Canada and the U.S. could come to an agreement to have the media mail rate apply to both countries, I'd love to ship to Canada; but until then... |
