Canadian Advice, Info on shipping
I can buy 2 replacement mixing bowls for $35 from Canada, or 1 for $25 from the US. I'm in the US. Is there any kind of lengthy delay right now getting things from Canada? Are they getting hung up in Canadian or US Customs? Anything else I haven't covered? Will I have to pay Duty?

Actually, it's worse than that. We sent something to friends in NY as a joke from our cottage in CDN. It needed to travel less than 100 miles. We happen to run into them about a month later (we live 2 hours apart so this was pretty incredible) and asked how they liked the package. They hadn't received it yet. It was delivered a few weeks later. And the cost wasn't cheap. lol
If you want it in this lifetime, you may be better off getting in in the US.

I resent that remark about Canada Post. I have something coming from the States that is three weeks in...
Don't forget the exchange rate too. Just order from wherever it is cheaper... including exchange, duty and taxes (if any)
