Anyone using ShipTime as a shipping service?

[Former_Member]

Hi everyone : )

I was wondering if anyone has ever used or is using ShipTime to ship their packages from Canada - international and local. IT is a service provided trough costco membership. I never used it and was wondering if it was worth it.
I am very worried about the Canada Post price raise and I'm maybe looking for another shipping option.

Thank you ! : )

Hi Maxime!

I have not used another service like ShipTime, so I don't have any information on that for you, sorry :(

The rate increases are (on average) for packages is about 3%, right?
Is that enough of a raise to make you look at other services?

Do you have a price breakdown for ShipTime services? I would be interested to see what the comparison is.

I'm sure you have looked at this info, but just in case, here are some links to the Canada Post info:

Thank you for your help Holly : )

Yes it's only a 3% rate - when I wrote this topic I got mixed up between light package and small package - but still I would like to offer a shipping fee that would be less that what I have right now. With Canada Post, for my items, I go from about 8 to 19$ depending on the destination. I wish it could be cheaper.

Thank you ! : )

I understand exactly what you mean about wishing it could be cheaper!

My items go from $7.61 up to around $55.00, and that is just to the US. You don't want to know what International rates can be like. :)
