Slim pickings for Calgary. Majority are downtown or city outskirts. Might be a bit more helpful if it could be linked in with rates to eBay labels. (For anyone that sells items of assorted shapes and sizes. As for dropping off at a CP location they no longer accept puro parcels.

Didn't ChitChats offer a similar "plan" using Canpar? (maybe that was Stallion?)
For all these services, Stallion, ChitChats etc, they have always told sellers who are not close to a ChitChats location to ship orders in bulk to them either using their recommended carrier or one of your choice.
20 years ago I was doing a similar thing but this was before ChitChats or Stallion existed and my bulk packages went to the US (a UPS Store, actually to whatever those locations were called before UPS took them over) where they were then handed over to USPS.
I agree, there is nothing new here other than the use of Purolator instead of an alternate service (which one could still use).
