I was looking for 357 Sig brass I contacted 3 folks who had it on Ebay.. One the shipping was out to lunch... ($35 for 1K or brass) one who said I has had problems shipping to canada and one who said he won't ship to canada anymore even though his auction said worldwide...
 
I have bought lots of brass from the US. Things to avoid. Never buy from someone that only uses UPS for shipping, anything over 20 bucks and they add 30 dollars for brokeage fee's. Only have USPS send it and then Canada Post charges 5 dollars for fees if it is over 20 dollars. Ask for the shipping price before the auction has ended, sometimes sellers are right out to lunch and are trying to make a few extra bucks. Remind the seller that it is just brass that you are shipping and there are no restrictions on shipping brass. I bought 2000 .45acp from one guy for 29.00, shipping was 35.00 and brokerage was 5 dollars plus gst, total with conversion is 84.00 Can. On marstar's site they have .45 acp for 99.95 per thou. so a bit under half price. So when looking on ebay remember it is in US funds, does the seller ship USPS and how much, and you can find some cheap brass as long is it is in bulk size. Buying 100-400 is usually about the same price as buying it here.
 
Many times or should I say many thousands of brass, Hunter64's post says it all. Checking on shipping before bidding and making sure that the seller will ship by U.S. Postal Service (USPS) are the two most important things to do.

Have bought lots on e-bay. It is a gamble because you are taking the other guys word for it, So far all the brass I have bought has showed up and the stuff that they say is new has been and the stuff that is once fired well how do you tell.
I have gotten 2 moulds on e bay both Lee Moulds that have been a little iffy and one of them was even out of Canada but as I said above "yous pays yours moneys and yous takes yours chances".
I would buy and I wouldn't be scared just use your head, or have your Lieberal Candidate look out for you. (Just joking on that last part.)
Thanks Ken
 
I have done so for years. sometimes the sellers will not include Canada in their listing but I have found if you ask and refer them to your feedback they are more than willing to ship up here.
