Overstock site no longer mailing to Canada?

18 years ago

I hope this is the right forum for this money-saving question, but the prices there are exceptional!

A few years ago, 2003, I believe, they shipped internationally....does anyone know why they no longer do that?

I was SO disappointed when I saw that just now....

Thanks for any info you may have.....Lynn

Why not send them an email? If you want to order something, let me know . I'll get it and mail it to you. I have a Mailboxes store nearby and they will let me send packages to Canada. The exchange rate between US and Canada are exactly the same, at par. Let me know if I cam help you out.

My goodness, aren't you precious?!!!
They don't exactly have an email address that I could find, just one of those FAQ pages...but I'll look again.
And thank you SO MUCH for your offer!!

Our DD's fiance's parents will be spending the winter in Florida, and they said I could use their address for anything I wanted to purchase.
I hope they have room in their van on the way home for some of the things I'd want! LOL!
On the other hand, my DH and I will be in Detroit for the Lions/Packers game on your Thanksgiving, and OMG...we'll be shopping on your Black Friday!! How's THAT for a great birthday present from him this year?! ;-D Now I hope WE have room in our van for the things I want to purchase! hah!

Take care Jannie, and again...thanks for your very kind offer!! """"HUGS>>>>

We'll probably need to keep the seedlings out of the restaurant (botulism makes restauranteurs nervous - go fig :). I'd save them for the seedling swap at the end of May/beg of June, but they need to be in the ground before then (I ended up very disappointed last year: I was in France when I should have been transplanting, popped them in the garden at the end of May and got a bumper crop ... of green tomatoes). I don't want to trod on any toes, though - please let me know if there are objections to this. If not, the easiest thing would probably be for anyone with/wanting seedlings to park in the covered parking by the library (sheltered, and usually empty/sparsely occupied), and we can hook up there after we're done at the restaurant. The idea isn't to preempt the experimental farm seedling swap - just to get the early stuff in the ground on mother nature's schedule :) Cheers, Sasha

Received my Cedar Hollow order of three roses on Friday. They were polestar, Dr. Merckley and what was supposed to be lambert Closse but instead was polareis. I must say that the customer service at Cedar Hollow is wonderful because I was not going to worry about it but was contacted by Cedar Hollow and asked if the right rose was sent out and if not they would send it out at no charge. Now I have to find a spot for lambert closse as I put the polareis in the spot that I had for it.

I just found a copy of a post from August of 2002, so guess it's been a while. Got alot, I mean ALOT, of good book suggestions and quite a few good book discussions over the years. After all these years it almost feels like I know some of these posters.

Hi Glitter. I don't know if you have an XS Cargo store near you but they carry a lot of the same things as Overstock in the US and guess what. I just checked a couple of items on Overstock (Cuisinart Grind'n Brew coffee maker) and the Hoover Floor Mate floor washer/vac and they're cheaper in Canada at XS Cargo than Overstock.com
BTW much of Overstock items are refurbished just like the stuff at XS Cargo in Canada
I paid $37 for the Grind & Brew at XS CArgo and it's $42 US on Overstock

Thank you, PKGUY...really appreciate your response.
Yes, we have an XS Cargo here, but unfortunately, I'm interested in more girly stuff....jewellry, purses, etc...Wish XSCargo considered those items as "cargo"! ;-D

As for bargains there, I got my MP3 player there before I 'upgraded'.....and some kitchen 'stuff' for our son's apartment....it's a great place to scope out now and then!

Thanks again PKGuy!

Some other (non-Overstock-like) Web merchants with which I'm familiar are no longer shipping to Canada because of problems with Canadian customs fees (for which the vendor is liable if they cannot be collected from the recipient). :-(
