Any of you ebayers notice a bunch of Canadiens buying stuff from you?

Im guessing it's because of the crap dollar, but a lot of stuff Im selling (video games, DVDs) are being sold to people in Canada, a lot more so than usual. Anyone else notice this?

Maybe I should start selling Molson or hockey pucks or something, I could make a killing!

I block all bids from non-US bidders. Check your account settings.

I don't ship to those crazy Queen worshipers, but they beg a lot to consider shipping to them.

A lot of companies in the US won't ship to Canada so a lot of Canadiens probably look for alternatives like ebay. The weak dollar is like a discount.

Yes, there does seem to be an increase lately. 4 out of the 11 items I recently sold went to Canada.

Not like I'm complaining, they pay the extra shipping costs plus they bid more for the items than Americans do. How do I lose?
