We've been told that USPSMI will no longer accept shipments to Canada due to ongoing postal strike. 

We will now hold all shipments until we get word from UPSMI. 

sorry for the inconvenience,

    I have a box sitting in California since the 23rd; I’m guessing some are stuck in limbo till after the strike?

    Thanks for the update @Santos L. Halper ... and dealing with it. Better with you than sitting in a truck or warehouse somewhere.

    Not your fault at all @Santos L. Halper but man is it hard to see how much good stuff you guys sent out while we live in the stone ages in the Great White North!

    You and your crew have done an amazing job with so many orders and keeping us all informed along the way.  

    Many thanks! 🤙

    Good update! Hopefully the Canada Post and their employees come to a fair and equitable agreement asap!

    That’s what mine is and it’s stuck in USPS since they are holding Canada packages. Depending when it was shipped you may have a different carrier handling it.

    When you go to the UPS tracking and then view all shipping details then shipment details, do you see an alternate tracking number? If it starts with LX then that’s a USPS number you can use to track

    Also if you create a Canada Post account, they will send you emails that a package is on its way to you.
