I made the phone call to Marshalls... toll free number & they use USPS to ship to Canada. They do sell bolt, but you have to call them to order.

And you won't want FedEx shipping for international orders because you will probably get hit with extra brokerage fees!

Just a word to the wise...

I have ordered from them many times and have not had any trouble.

I have ordered from them in US and the service was really quick, only a couple of days and the fabric was here. There prices on backing fabrics are especially great.

[quote=Aully]Has anyone ever ordered from Marshall Dry Goods before? They have great prices but I am noticing the customer service is not as great, I keep asking how much shipping is to Canada and the keep saying is "depends on how much you order"

I've never heard of shipping by the yard; it's always been by weight no matter from whom I order.
Marshall Dry Goods is a great vendor, quality fabrics at good prices and good customer service.

i wonder if they use the flat rate packaging when they can. that would save you googobs of $$$.

Flat rate packaging is no bargain going out of USA
The $4.95 was going to cost over $11. to Canada.

Shipping by weight is a lot better than shipping by the cost/selling price. One yard of fabric can be anywhere from $2/yd to $10/yd or more. You can always "not complete" the order if you decide the shipping is too high.

I've ordered from them, but I ordered from ebay. Maybe if you check ebay to see if they have what you want, you can get a better idea about shipping costs.

Donnajean-thanks for letting me know about that, I was just going by what the post office here told me.

Okay so it is $26.95 for a flate rate medium shippping box for 26 yards/panels. Same shipping box for 2 bolts with 10 yards on each bolt. I am seeing if that can combine the bolts and panels in 1 box to see if it is cheaper for shipping. What do you think is that a good price for shipping to Canada?
