    Postman’s cap!

    Dane I have been looking at your display and think that you now need a 2nd cabinet just for soft caps and the like, and one for the helmets! :p

    Postman’s cap!

    Tell that to my better half! Happy to help out a young collector navigate the rough shipping waters we currently find ourselves in. Thankfully I had that parcel from Weitze coming anyway so there was no shipping charge to Canada and I was happy to cover the shipping of the cap to the USA...

    UNITED STATES IMPORT EXPORT DEVELOPMENTS

    There are other options. FedEx, UPS, DHL, numerous smaller couriers, as well as Purolator but they are owned by Canada Post so not sure if they are sympathy striking or not. There’s zero excuse to not ship anything.

    UNITED STATES IMPORT EXPORT DEVELOPMENTS

    They lose hundreds of millions of dollars per year, deliver pretty much nothing but junk mail, but want more money and job security for a failing and fading business model. Honestly they can stay on strike forever. I’m not sure anyone will notice.

    UNITED STATES IMPORT EXPORT DEVELOPMENTS

    Yeah my gifted 10 helmet stands to my friend wound up costing me over $200 Cdn in fees, duty (tariffs) and shipping costs. Sadly I think my days of shipping to the US are over until this gets sorted out. Add in the overhanging threat of a Canadian postal strike and it’s become a total shit show.

    UNITED STATES IMPORT EXPORT DEVELOPMENTS

    The $800 threshold is gone effective Aug 29, the US charges duty now on all shipments and it has to be prepaid before it ships. You can prepay duty via an app called Zonos Prepay at least for Canada. Shipped Danes cap and some helmet stands as a gift for a friend in Florida via UPS and duty...

    massif spam attack going on...

    Once a bot gains access it can be a bugger to try to remove them. Plus they will inform the entire bot world your an easy access point and you get inundated over time. It was no coincidence that we got hit twice within a short time last night. My guess is the bots language of preference is...

    "Sending to the U.S.? As of August 29, 2025, the United States requires all packages entering the U.S. to have duties prepaid. To complete payment and declaration, use the Zonos app to pay duties before heading to the post office" Sending a box to a friend in Florida this morning via Canada...

    massif spam attack going on...

    It’s a bot attack not a guy posting. These spam attacks are always bots and with AI bots now it’s going to get worse before it gets better. I imagine the platform vendors will have to improve their gatekeeping code. On the plus side though I know where to get a short term loan for today’s AoK...

    Where can I get a pickelhaube for under 300 dollars?

    Honestly for that price and given you’ve got a lot of repro pieces already I think you should get a high end complete reproduction from top to bottom. It would be within your budget and would look better, jmo.

    UNITED STATES IMPORT EXPORT DEVELOPMENTS

    Yes it is. I think the various couriers and postal outlets up here are all mixed up and getting misinformation. And with the pending Canada Post strike it’s a strange time to be shipping to the USA. I’ve tons of experience with import / export as it was a huge part of one of my businesses...
