Most U.S. online retailers are unaware of the typical shopping experience for their Canadian customers. Let’s say I’m looking for a new case for my cell phone and I come to your website. The front end of the experience is great. Product is laid out nicely, prices clearly stated, efficient shopping cart and then comes the checkout. As soon as I start to enter my address, I hold my breath to see how bad the shipping costs are going to be (if you even offer delivery to Canada). I already know that “Free shipping on orders over $25” won’t apply to me.
