"Shipping to CONUS only" Annoying (classifieds)

It doesn't take a genius to fill-out a USPS or courier packing slip. American companies go and set-up in other countries all the time to expand their markets. Why are sellers so averse to this?? The packages track the same way as domestic ones do.

Americans who won't ship equipment outside U.S.

Posted By Richard Anderson

I can understand not wanting to ship to areas where you might have little protection from fraud, but Canada or Britain?? What is with that? Is it that you think you'll have to fill out reams of paperwork if the product crosses a border? It isn't like that anymore, One small form they stick on the box, if you ship via USPS. American companies go abroad to make more money, by not shipping outside the U.S., you cut off at least 10% of your potential market.

Toronto store, Efstonscience is closing!

After something like 4 decades. Internet claims another victim! Get there fast if you want the scraps, but they've been picked-over pretty good already.
It's going to be like being in Kansas or something, no stores, just the internet!
