I live in Canada and often times the quotes are cheaper for me to ship something from the USA to Canada than from Canada to Canada.

The shipping time isn't bad if you use a reasonable service, but the cost of fulfillment will be very high because everybody has a minimum, usually around $1k/mo for each fulfillment warehouse.
Just don't pass on the full cost of shipping to customers if that's your concern.
Yeah i wanted to offer free shipping to all my customers...not just USA. This is helpful. Thank you for your comment.
Are you still requiring this service?Hi,
I live in the USA and I'm going to be launching a product (planner) for pre-sale at the end of July 2020. I know I will have some users from the UK and parts of Europe and wanted to find a fulfillment center in Europe that could distribute my products to keep shipping costs low for my customers. Does anyone have any recommendations?
Thanks.
