I'm with you, Dennis. Being in Canada, the courier companies just hammer me with brokerage fees on shipments from the States. I have had courier bills larger than the value of the parts being shipped! They also create delays at the border by holding my orders up while they track me down to get authorization for the brokerage. There is none of that with USPS and, because there are no delays at the border, they are not only much cheaper but just as fast.

I have had great service from Precision ProFormance, who work with me to ensure customs duties and sales taxes (VAT) are minimized. They are also willing to ship USPS, as I recall. Pantera Performance Centre offers great service too, but I don't think they are willing to ship USPS. Larry Stock at Pantera Parts Connection has had some serious frustrations recently with couriers, and told me that he will probably be shipping USPS from now on.
