Too smart, I didn't think of that.  I just typed in 12345 in the zip code
and Toyrs'R'Us stuck in SCHENECTADY NY on its own somehow.

Ideas for next time. :)

Out of curiosity, why didn't you address it to Vancouver, WA, USA instead? • It
would seem more logical-- the people at that post office are probably used • to
getting misdirected mail meant for up north (and if you could get it to go • to
Vancouver, BC, it would probably make it to Prince George).

You think that's funny? :)  Look at my Toyrs-R-Us order -- I tried to
circumvent the USA-only ordering system!  The package is on its way to:

Ship To: Paul Davidson
259 Pioneer Ave.Prince George, BC
SCHENECTADY NY 12345
USA

Wherever that is... :)
