avril 0 Report post Posted March 4, 2011 Question ya'll. I just went to the post office to try to mail these bad boys out, but the mail lady said that I couldn't purchase a stamp for a return trip because of having to get canadian postage. Did anyone else have this problem? PM Sent I had the same problem so I just put some cash in to pay for return. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lionus 0 Report post Posted March 4, 2011 Thanks for the responses. I was worried about breaking proper etiquette on my first fly swap. Flies should be out in the morning tomorrow. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kbranch 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2011 glad you recieved answer about return postage, I know it is different when dealing with american and canadian postage. One main concern for swappers sending flies in canada is the package cannot exceed 3/4'' so altoid boxes are just to large, hope that info helps aswell. kevin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Houndog 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2011 Nice Ties! I try to give 2 1/2 to 3 weeks when mailing from Canada to the US (and expect that much time going the other way), I would not consider your flies late yet Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kbranch 0 Report post Posted April 1, 2011 mail came today and still no sign of the last set of flies, if they arrive next week i will post that they did, If they do not arrive by end of next week i may have to send them out without them. Thanks for everyones patience. kevin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lionus 0 Report post Posted April 4, 2011 kbranch, if they are mine, you can just go ahead and send the swap out without mine. i sent mine over two weeks ago and if they arent there yet, i'm not sure they are going to make it. sorry for the hold up everyone.
