I was wondering if someone can help me. I have had a few emails from buyers
in Canada. I did add a chili g method I’m for Canada. I really don’t know if
I did it right. I am not familiar with shipping to Canada or how to calculate
shipping or the process. Can someone help me figure this out?

Thank you

Maybe you can select methods from the list of shared shipping methods.

Hello!

I'm not from Canada, so I can't test it, but it looks like you did it
correctly. In your shipping policy, it says that you ship to the USA and Canada.
To calculate postage or create a rate chart, you can use USPS Notice 123:

https://pe.usps.com/text/dmm300/Notice123.htm

The sections to pay attention to are First Class Package International and Priority
Mail International. Canada is Zone 1. If you purchase postage at the post office,
then use the retail prices; if you purchase postage online (e.g. through PayPal
or Pirate Ship), then use the commercial prices.

I hope that helps!

I just tried and I can't even get past the first step of your checkout as
it says you have no payment methods setup for international buyers.

I realized i never set anything up in payments. I changed it in my Bricklink
settings. Could you try again and just see how far it lets you go, without actually
making a purchase? lol

It works now! My only recommendation is that I noticed it isn't instant
checkout, but it's showing an estimated cost. If this isn't the actual
charge necessarily (like I added a set to my basket for example), and it could
be more, I'd recommend disabling estimates being shown so you can enable
request a quote. When the fees aren't known/upfront in the terms, you may
have some folks internationally being a little hesitant when they see how expensive
it is later on.
