Let's start off with what can you afford? What price point are you looking for to have all these boxes shipped?

You'll discover what we discovered. Most of the shipping cost is the clearing of customs.

Not sure where you are, but we have some shipments come direct to us via Air Canada Cargo. We have to clear our own customs at the airport (never takes more than a half hour) and we save a small fortune.

Thanks Craig and Tina, for your information. To be more specific, UPS charge me $150.00 each box to be shipped. For me, that is a lot if I bring 50.00 boxes, my profit is wide reduced. I'm in Vancouver, B.C. Do you have any Idea how much can be with Air Canada or another company?
Thanks for your time.
