Canadians, trying to do business...
 

Do you ever feel that we're in a third world country trying to get things done? I've been trying to buy something online for a week now, the stores I've tried will sell to and ship to Canada, but they won't accept our credit cards.. They'll take international cards from Serbia, but not Canada... Free trade my ass? :(

Buy from somewhere else man... Never had this kind of problem !

I've tried 6 stores now, all seem to have the same kind of restrictions.

I have never had a pleasant online shopping experience from Canadian vendors. Its really bad.

yup, it sucks major ass... like we have completely incompatible systems and aren't trust worthy enough to pay more than $1k at a time or something.

If you read his comments Charles, he says that he is buying in order to ship to Canada. That means dealing with international vendors.

Canadian vendors are horrible, I refuse to deal with them, these are US vendors.

I guess it might be your card type..you should be able to change it to a type that interent sites do take ..

Yeah, I hear Visa is a rarity in most parts of the world. :(

they dont have it setup to take cards from everywhere...eatons needs to owpen a processor..lol

they can take it..or sears

I've used Visa and Amex for a ton of purchases online and I've never had a problem on my end. (I'm in Canada)

Eatons? no thanks... I don't need a bankrupt company to give me credit :winkwink:
