Shipping a 3 pound box within the US costs $4.30...shipping that same
box
to Canada costs $7.44. . It seems kinda unfair to me that someone would
be stuck having to pay the extra $3.14 to mail to Canada.

I've been thinking about this -- Lego pieces are not the only thing being
given around (1).  Is there any way for someone to "stuff" the postage on a
package like this for the next few people, without resorting to dropping
actual currency into the box?

1.  One might argue that if someone puts a lesser value of Lego back into
the box (2), it might be made up for by paying the postage for the next few
turns in advance.

2.  I'm not actually planning on stiffing anyone on Lego parts; I just
thought it'd be cool to be able to stuff the postage.

A few bucks for postage is not going to phase me in the least. (...) (25 years ago, 23-Jul-99, to lugnet.market.jambalaya)
