The last few times I sent computer/related to Canada I marked the parcels
"obsolete computer or printer parts-gift" and the value as a couple dollars. I
normally send them UPS rather than USPS as I think much of the problem is with
our glorious postal service inspectors as well. As for things I recieve I have
them marked the same and the word "gift" specified on all paperwork to include
openly on the label. "Obsolete" seems to mean a different thing to them as
opposed to "old" What was the purpose of NAFTA anyway? Things are tighter and a
bigger pain now than they were before NAFTA, especially to Canada. Mexico doesn't
seem to be very much trouble lately.
