Extravagant shipping fee to Canada

[elsi_gril*44]

Why, as a Canadian, am I paying so much for shipping? Today alone I decided against purchasing items due to the incredibly high shipping fee.

I agree with you on this. I also cancelled an order today because GSP wanted more money to ship than the items were worth. I have been a customer at ebay for 15yrs and have had enough gouging.

It's not that the GSP "wants" all that shipping charge. As a forwarding service, you're actually paying the seller for getting the item to Kentucky and the GSP for shipping the item from Kentucky to you.
