If you wish to have us resend the messages can we get some clarification using this format?

The signed message should only be contained between the start and the end but not including the start and end?
The last line in the signed message should include the new line character?

Thanks!

thieves, all of 'em!

my work requires a lot of supplies that are a LOT more readily available (and at better prices) in the USA, but i've been using the more expensive domestic sources more and more just because i hate lining the couriers' pockets. $35 to fill out a form!

I don't get it either. Everything in USA is cheaper and service is faster. You know, the anker hub is $65 on amazon.ca, the exact the same hub is $50 on amazon.com. Go figure. And we cannot order from amazon.com.

Last time I check 1 USD was 1.03 CAD, so that hub on amazon.ca should be $51.5 not $65 Huh

On top of that, we are paying HST and brokerage when we get the package. But I still prefer my order to be sent Fedex. USPS is good but you'll be getting it who knows when and if your package is flagged by Customs, you'll wait weeks before you get it. It happened to me once, where incoming USPS package (handled by CanadaPost on our side) was stopped in Customs; CanadaPost and Customs played "it is not me it is him" game to two weeks. I called Canada Customs, they referred me to CanadaPost. When I called CanadaPost, they referred me to Canada Customs. Total nightmare.

I hope your USPS package gets in without a hassle.

gulp! now you've got me worried. never dealt much specifically with USPS (or FedEx, for that matter); i'm just thinking of my positive experiences with canada post, and the extortionate brokerage fees that UPS slaps on cross-border packages.

this actually raises an interesting point -- what's the value of these things for customs declarations? my bitcoins were a LOT cheaper than $128 each.

It will be whatever value Canary puts on the customs declaration. He is the retailer from the Canada Customs perspective.
We'll be paying HST (based on the value Canary puts on the declaration) +brokerage (about $35) and duties (based on the value Canary puts on the declaration). I'm not sure if we'll get hit with duties, since these are USB sticks after all. But HST+brokerage is a given.

Fedex is like UPS in terms of raping you and leaving you high dry. But they do it fast Wink

If the miners do come in tomorrow, would I be able to pick them up in person as opposed to having them shipped? I just so happen to be in the area till monday morning and it would be ultra convenient to be able to have them asap.

i don't see why not.

I will publish instructions for local pickups soon. you will send me a signed message with your code word, so that I know you are whose forum handle you claim to represent in person

. please no vulgarity...

after several PMs requesting this, here you go:

2013-05-29: add .12 for next day shipping if your order is less than 10 units and you want next day instead of priority.

Does the same offer (or a similar one at a different price) apply to Canadian orders?

no, fedex is quoting me $75 to ship next day to Canada... so it would be .57 bitcoins

oof! that's rich. i'll wait

I guess I'm going to be a busy bee tomorrow?

Wow, that was fast. I think it will be out for delivery in ~~Detroit~~ Chicago on Monday.
Does DHL deliver on Saturday?

dunno... but I bet chances are good that I will have it tomorrow...

Let's hope there is no holdup in customs and it leaves Cincinnati tonight and be "Out for delivery" in Chicago tomorrow.
