Just sold a card and the guy is in Canada. He's willing to pay for USPS Express with tracking and sig. Anyone ever have any problems doing this? Are there better ways to send it? It's a high end card (over $1k). How much should I expect to pay? Thanks.

Probably within $25-30. Put all the insurance on it.
See if he'll pony up for some type of express (2-3 days).

pghbuccos may have an idea as well, he sends me lots.

Are there any taxes or customs charges that I have to pay?

USPS EMS (or EMI, Express Mail INternational) does NOT have signature confirmation.

As you can see from the link, international mail is ineligible for Signature confirmation. You can have the recipient sign a postcard known as a Return Receipt, which does not provide any electronic record of signature, but instead will be mailed back to you. As far as I know, Ebay/Paypal will not accept a Return Receipt as proof of signature since they require an electronic record.

Just an FYI.

Nope you do not, but the buyer may.

No, but the OP asked if there could problems if he used EMI, and I pointed out there certainly could be.
