Since many years ago, I have a policy to never sell anything to any
Canadians. The reasons are exactly as above.

If I had it to do all over again I would have gone with Osborn but the
Canadians offered more...it seemed at the time. I had to fight tooth
and nail with them to pay the taxes and utility bills and such on time
as we did toll manufacturing for them for 7 months.

Never again!


Common sense, general attitude towards humanity, and fairness would
all suggest that Canadian buyers are just like any other buyers.

This is the attitude that I ignorantly started off with on ebay, 15
years ago.

That attitude was SHATTERED to bits after a few bad experiences (and
zero good experiences).

I kept on selling to Canadians because, I thought, that was a fluke,
could not be anything but a fluke.

But it was not a fluke, and the nonsense, nonpayments, inane requests,
personality trips, false disputes, and such, continued unabated.

To this date, I do not understand what could possibly be the cause.
