Default Ordered Carbquik/Carbalose

I decided to try placing an order online just to the point where you
checkout so I could see the shipping charge to Canada (specifically
Alberta). It was almost $17US for 1 box and sky-rocketed to almost $62US
for 4 boxes. So for me to order just 1 box would be about $22US including
shipping.
I don't mind paying a little more for a good LC product, but that's just
outrageous. Needless to say, I won't be able to try it any time soon.

Yeah, shipping was 6.99 here in the US for me. Can't imagine what it

That's why I went ahead and ordered three, to dilute the shipping charges
somewhat. Still $6.99.

Is it a UPS problem? It appears they just use the UPS calculator. Maybe we
can talk them into a more affordabe method (if it gets that far).

The only options for shipping were all UPS and I chose the least expensive
one, which was by ground. I sent them an email this morning but haven't
gotten a reply yet.

Thanks! That would be great! Do you remember what the name of the
Canadian company was by any chance?

The company told me that Carbquik will be available at an online
canadian site in the coming weeks, meaning that Canadian shipping will
be less then.
