I like the idea

They have good deals sometimes.

I've ordered a lot from the US for the wedding and only had to pay a $5 duty charge once on a $150 invitation order.

I just got those same bags as well.  Was thinking about getting something put on them, but then decided against it in case my guests want to use them for something else, ie groceries, etc then they might not want to if our names or date are all over the front.  Do love OTC though!

I just received my order from Oriental Trading - and I am in Canada.

 

I ordered assorted tote bags, flip flop notepads, beach balls, raffia fans, bubble bottles, activiy pad assortment for kids, love playing cards, small water guns, and tropical pens.

 

I haven't taken everything apart and probably won't until we get there but everything looks great so far!! The quality is better than I would expect for the price I paid... it's not amazing but it's not very cheap either. If you have questions about any specific item, please feel free!

 

About the shipping to Canada - I don't think it was that bad... my order came to $242.33, tax was $32.44, duty was $6.94 and shipping was $38.00 - total was $319.71

 

Now, I have not been charged on my credit card yet and am hoping for no surprises.... but I didn't think it was that bad, especially compared to anything I could get in Canada... no prices compared.

 

Just my two cents

I wish I live in teh USD for such a good offer from this company.

I'm in Canada - it was still a good deal! And the credit card was charged now, no surprises!

I received an oriental trading catalogue that was only wedding stuff. Some of the stuff seems like its priced very well. I have not bought anything from them so I cannot comment of quality.
