There's no brokerage fees if you use U.S./Canada Post.  Fed Ex Ground (must
be ground) isn't supposed to have a brokerage fee either...

Is there a brokerage fee on those? That's sometimes a fair amount. I have a
Buffalo address that I ship to.  I can probably talk her into more car parts

Mark's shop is between her place and mine...
