All the more reason to have a bank account in the US and transfer funds to Cdn when you decide. Glenda

I agree. The unfortunate thing is that I've been waiting to transfer and the rate just keeps getting worse. 😞

Do you think maybe next year we will see 1=1???

<<< gasp >>>

I'm not likely to be selling on ebay if that should be the case. I find it hard enough to compete with US booksellers o0ffering dirt-cheap shipping via media mail as it is, and the exchange rate is not helping.

zarzuella, you need to ship them from US at media rate, drive to US or get someone to do it for you.

anyone knows the reason?

all other currencies are falling, euro, pound sterling, japanese yen, australian $, US $, but Canadian $ is keeping rising!!!!!

I think it is because we have gas / oil, copper and gold, and our economy is doing really well. I cringe each day the new figures are announced. 95% of my sales have always been to the U.S., and this is a real hard one for the profits. And it can get a lot worse~ I think back in the late 60's, the Canadian dollar was valued at something like $1.10 U.S.
