Hi Leon,

LOL...yes, but despite Rich's typo, my main objection is to his statement that everyone with any level of experience agrees on this issue.

The fact is that they don't agree at all. We've heard from sellers in this thread who will not ship internationally. That's fine - they can make their own rules.

But I have been buying pre-war cards from US sellers off eBay for 15 solid years. Hundreds of flawless transactions from hundreds of vendors: some small operators, and some of the very biggest names. They have plenty of experience, but they remain open to foreign bidders and shipping.

This is not an issue where there is universal agreement...in my own personal experience I'd say about 95% of US pre-war card sellers will ship to Canada without any exception or special permission to bid required. And about 5% will not.

Cheers,
Blair
