Do you ever feel that we're in a third world country trying to get things done? I've been trying to buy something online for a week now, the stores I've tried will sell to and ship to Canada, but they won't accept our credit cards.. They'll take international cards from Serbia, but not Canada... Free trade my ass?

I've tried 6 stores now, all seem to have the same kind of restrictions.

yup, it sucks major ass... like we have completely incompatible systems and aren't trust worthy enough to pay more than $1k at a time or something.

If you read his comments Charles, he says that he is buying in order to ship to Canada. That means dealing with international vendors.

Canadian vendors are horrible, I refuse to deal with them, these are US vendors.

I've used Visa and Amex for a ton of purchases online and I've never had a problem on my end. (I'm in Canada)
