I am NOT a supplier simply an experienced buyer who wanted to remind busy embroidery folks that when it's possible consider buying some goods from Canadian suppliers as everything is on sale for you - by about 25% due to the dollar exchange. US dollar is rising almost daily against the Canadian.
We are such close trading partners it's sometimes good - when you can't keep business at home - to keep it between close cousins!!
Even with shipping and duties (some have none) you can still come out ahead depending on country of origin due to Free Trade.
UPS is easiest as they will clear customs and deliver goods as a one stop delivery until you decide to use an independent customs broker. It's just a thought that some never think to consider and every percentage gain at wholesale counts!! It is easier than you think to buy cross border though I know online for other countries are good too.
If you have any questions I'd be happy to try and answer.
