the new stuff, do you guys have target and walmart there? i aint super sure there's a ton of canadian living collectors here on the forum, but if you need stuff ebay is good. shipping from usa to canada isnt bad, its the other way around thats killer.

We do not have Target here and walmart does not stock them.
I do look on ebay but shipping is horrible. They charged like $10USD per pack

On Facebook someone posted that they found current GPK at a Toys R Us in Toronto back in March of this year. Any stores around you?

Unreal. yeah i didnt know that either until a few months ago. grafiti ben that used to be on here lives in michigan and goes to canada all the time to toys r us. i'd called him one day and asked what he was doing and he said walking around toys r us, and i asked if he rode there in a DeLorean and thats when i found out they are alive and well there. |

Quebec sounds like a GPK desert. Maybe I should load up the station wagon with cases of We Hate the 90s, drive up there, and sell them out of my trunk at a huge markup!

The guy i got the 3 booster pack said:
''I think they are releasing new one soon.''
He was not even aware of the 'we hate the 90s' series.

yeah good idea.
I am 1h30 from the borders, so something like 1h50 from plattsburgh.
Just need to have a 'real' reason to go there to stay for at least a day or else the borders will tax me and the tax here is high(15%).

Um, have the border agents never heard of a little place called THE CHAMPLAIN VALLEY TRANSPORTATION MUSEUM??? It's as exciting as it sounds! It has automobiles, steam trains, non-steam trains, boats, and a third kind of train! The 2019 season opens this month! NO KIDS OR TALKING ALLOWED. |

lol, what i mean is that if i go there for an hour by example and go back to the borders and they ask me how much time i was there and what i did, if i tell them it been a hour maybe 2 and i bought cards. They will tax me on the ammount i paid.
I must stay at least 24 hours to be able to buy for a maximum of 200$ without them charging me taxes. Or max 800$ if i stay 2 days.

I don't know if they still exist though. |
