I got the word today from the Canada Post Outlet that ALL packages are now going to be charged the cubed weight.
SO what I used to be able to ship as a small package to the US weighting under 500 grams in an 8x6x6 box is now going to cost $8.50. Get this .....length x width x height= divided by 6000 = cubed weight Even if the box weights 200 grams the rate is $8.50
Another *&%#ing over by Canada Post.

Todd is right. If you are located in Brockville you should be travelling to the US once or twice a week to do your mailing. Its quick, painless (except for the $9 in fee/tolls) and you will save $$$.
When I went thru Prescott customs last week, they were telling me there are a lot of ebay sellers doing the same thing.
If I lived 30 minutes closer I would be going once a week.

Items arrive with Tracking in 3 to 5 Days to all of America
Prices are 50% cheaper
No Volume sizing of the Boxes ~~~the weight is the weight
You can use the Ebay check out requiring a Zip code. No more losing money for the state that really far away
Going once a week to start would be still worth it
Oh ...fill up in America with the Gas and get the Cheese for the family lol

To get back to the OP's point - has anyone else heard of this? I suspect you got an uninformed postal clerk.
I hope you just got an uninformed postal clerk ....

there are definite size restrictions for small packet. As long as you fall within those dimensions you should be ok.
On the other side, I had an expedited parcel going to the US that they wouldn't take because the box was too small!

I think you just got an uninformed postal clerk...
:)
I live in Mid-Alberta (Edmonton), so driving to the border is definitely not feasible. And most of my products go out Small Packet, so it's still cheap for me. Sending to my Canadian customers is annoying, however. I always get asked "why is canada shipping so high when you *live* in Canada)? *sigh*. I'm finally putting the answer to that question in my listings...

Of coarse when I stated this , its to All of America not Canada. North America includes Canada . The comment was shipping product from within America
I shipped Items today from WA, and FL will get them in 5 days
