what. the. hell.

seriously.

i'm fat, so i know i'll be paying more for my clothes. and i live in canada, so i know shipping will sometimes be a bit more. but i didn't think shipping would be so FUCKING INSANE.

random shirt from random website-
american shipping, 6.35.
canadian shipping, 21.85.

favourite band tshirt from hottopic-
american shipping, 5.00
canadian shipping, 23.99!!!

so i guess what i'm asking, is for someone with an american address to let my stuff go to their house. i'll pay you with paypal before you order them, so you'll never have the bad side of the bargain.

it's just, with my size it's very difficult to find stuff i like on ebay. but at the same time, i'm fucking cheap with my money. it just KILLS me to pay more for shipping then for the actual shirt. (hot topic shirt was 17.99)

once it gets to your place you can ship it in an oversized envelope. canada to usa envelopes cost 3.50, i heard that usa to canada envelopes are even cheaper?

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE. it's pretty much impossible to find my favourite band's merchandise, and when i do, it's not my size. but now it is, and i'm going to cry if i can't get it because the shirt is 40$.

I found this site the other day that isn't live yet...but it should be in the next 1-2 weeks. They allow you to have a US address at their warehouse so that your clothes could be shipped there. Then, they forward the clothes to you. Best part is that they offer the international shipping at 50% off with a subscription or 25% off as a one time transaction. Therefore, you should really be able to cut down on your costs. The site is called Bongo International or Bongo US as the site states. Check it out...and good luck.
