To send for authentication in Canada do I need to use their FedEx service? What about insurance?

[drwho534]

First time to list sneakers for authentication from Canada (I list on ebay.com). There info. page states the item is to be taken to a FedEx centre which goes to their authentication centre (Canada or U.S.)? Can I not just send by Canada Post (just around the corner, FedEx is miles away). If sending by post how can I insure them since they haven't yet been authenticated I wouldn't know their true replacement value? Appreciate any help, thanks.

Unsure of the how's etc but are you close to Staples location? They will process Fedex shipments. From my understanding Air only. Same goes for your local CP depot. 

I've attached the eBay ca help pages regarding autentication for reference.

Correction. Fedex parcels are not handled through all CP locations. See link for your closest location. https://local.fedex.com/en-ca
