The shipping isn't a LOT more but yes it does increase.
You will have to fill out a page that says exactly what you're shipping, its values and quantities. If its over a set amt (think its 65 bucks) they'll charge you a fee.
Also I've had some shipments take over a month to ship by air.... which is supposed to arrive within a week

I live in Canada, and shipping isn't too bad. If it's larger stuff, it typically costs just as much to have shipped from the U.S. than to have it shipped from a different location in the country.

Depending on the service you select, ground shipping may take as much as a week and air is typically better.

I just shipped a 5Lb package to Canada via UPS Standard Ground for $10.48. It would have cost over $60 with FedEx! It took only 4 days to get from northern California to British Columbia.

Yes, it usually costs more. This is what is called FREE trade...

Man, you guys are lucky! If I buy anything from the US off of Ebay, shipping is usually DOUBLE and I have to pay taxes (which is fine with me, it's the extra "handling" charge that gets me).

I know shipping small stuff isn't too bad at all.

To ship 2 CD within the US is approx $0.50 and to Canada is $0.80
