Very good experience! Will use this service again if I need to
Great experience! If I need to ship something from Canada again I will definitely use this company. My package arrived very quickly and with no issues.
My first order experience was great!
My first order experience was great! I ordered my contacts through them because my usual seller stopped shipping to the US. Shipbymail contacted me when they needed more info and ensured they were delivered to me in a reasonable time considering the issues with Canada Post and the US border. Definitely a reliable service - 5 stars.

They are a legitimate company
I wanted to write an up to date review of Ship by Mail for those of you like me who were in a panic because it seemed your package was stuck at the Ship by Mail warehouse.
I bought my large portable massage table from a Canadian company just before the US tariffs were imposed. Between the time I purchased it and it reached Ship by Mail the tariffs had been put into place. I don't think that Ship by Mail was prepared for the confusion that the tariffs caused.
I have finally received my large package in perfect condition!!! So Ship by Mail truly is what they claim. I am so happy to get this massage table that was to be a present for my daughter. (I am just an average person- not a reseller or a business person)
But I will say this was a stressful experience. Probably because Ship by Mail is so swamped because of the tariff complications their communication left a lot to be desired. I would always get an answering machine. My only communication for a long time was via the help ticket. They were always quick with a response, but the answer was usually the same: "Yes, my product had arrived but they were still figuring out my tariff".
Their website had only one note about the delay because of tariffs that did not get updated. I would have liked if they posted an update weekly even if it was to say that they were still working on it. I started wondering if this was a scam, but no, they are a real company.
When my package was finally released to ship I ran into additional snags, but finally a person from company (and not some distant call center!) called me and we were able to iron out the last few difficulties. He was very nice and very apologetic. After that call things moved swiftly and I received my package within the week.
So even though this ended up being a very stressful experience I am pleased with the end result.

The delivery and shipping worked!
The website worked! Came all the way to NYC so happy!
I was skeptical at first
I was skeptical at first. but the only way for me to get what I wanted in the USA was to try out Shipbymail.. I am so happy with how it all worked out and can't wait to use my Canadian address again!! Thank you guys for getting my package safe and fast.
ShipByMail keeps items and charge, won't send the package out to US
I bought some clothes from this company called Kyodan in Aug, I've paid $182 CAD on Sep 24, which is really expensive. But ShipByMail hasn't even prepared to ship my package after 1 month passed by!! Today is Oct 27th, and there is NO REASON this company charged that much money and won't ship my items to US. I contacted customer service many many times, but they keep saying "we're preparing to ship your item." Oh well, this company is definitely a scam. DO NOT USE IT!!

What a reliable service
What a reliable service! I've used Ship By Mail many times now, and they never disappoint. Every item has arrived safely, and the process always works exactly as it should. It's rare to find a service this consistently trustworthy. My highest recommendation!
I would repeat if needed
It took a whole life to process the package(4 days though they marketed max 2 business days) though once processed it was super fast to deliver. The customer service took more than 48h to answer though they were kind and willing to help. However, I give them a 5 star rate cause in a weekend they managed to send a package from Canada to Spain. Thanks
Fantastic service
The communication between shipbymail and myself was timely. They answered all questions. To the point, the shipment arrived on time from Canada to Thailand specifically in 5 days. I am very happy camper and I will definitely use their service again. Thank you.
Awful and slow
Awful, slow and lack of communication. I am still yet to receive my good and they have been paid for shipping over 10 days ago. By the time they arrive I will be unable to return. If you need anything writhing 6 weeks of ordering I would
Not use this website.
Great shipping Canada to the ik
These guys have altered the way I buy in North America. The worry of tariffs has stopped me buying in Canada and importing to the us before forward shipping to the uk. Now I have my Canadian packages sent by shipbymail. Looking forward to being with these guys for the long haul.
Great service!
This is my first time using Shipbymail and for sure it will not be my last. My order came well packed and without any delays. Also the website is easy to use and everything was clear.
Pleasant Surprise - No Regrets
Got a gift certificate from Amazon Canada and wanted to find a way to ship to Jamaica and found this option. Was hesitant a first to but decided to give it a try. I was alerted when packages were delivered to location. I used UPS and the package was delivered right to my house. A bit pricey but worth the convenience
ShipbyMail is the best, easiest and most affordable
ShipbyMail is the best, easiest and most affordable service for us to send returns from Amazon.ca to our USA headquarters. The process is easy and straightforward with only a few clicks and the cost is competitive. There are some extreme fees if you exceed the free tier but you can avoid them because they send regular notifications.
Absolutely Amazing!!!
I am extremely pleased with my order, the process, and overall experience with Shipbymail! Actively updated and communicated with me regarding my order. Shipped and arrived very quickly, a lot faster than I was expecting! Will definitely be using them for future purchases. Definitely recommending them to my friends and family!
