    Maybe creating a “discounted” section on your website to sell damaged boxes, as long as the interior kit-parts are still in good condition. I personally don’t mind a damaged box and it seems a waste to me to just scrap the whole thing. Maybe just me?

    I have no experience with Canadian Gundam, living in Italy, but from what I saw they're very professional and they care about their clients; I'd like to buy something from them but they don't ship outside America and Canada...for the moment...I hope...eh eh eh!

    I grab kits from CanadianGundam here and there. They're like a 45 min drive from my place but they have a pretty good shipping rate and delivery time so I buy online most the time. With the gunplanetwork discount code its pretty good. Most hobby places or comic shops that sell kits near me (within an hour drive) drive up the prices like crazy, has bad stocks, bad delivery rate or all the above. I pretty much only shop from this place (in Hamilton) and one other gunpla/hobby shop thats in Markham.
    They also give out this pretty neat business card with a holographics Barbatos on it.
    edit: lol just noticed the business card logo is that poster at 7:18

      Is it really hard for you to get kits where your at?
      If your having trouble finding kits locally see if your area has a Chinese mall/plaza or just asian area in general. They're more likely to stock kits in their hobby shops and other stores as opposed to more western hobby shops carrying mostly comics and WH40k. Issue is alot of these small stores dont have websites if their owner isnt more tech savvy or younger.

    That's amazing you run that from your home. And you've been in business since 2005. Most business die in the first year. Gundam is like a niche of niche in the modeling community. I'm surprised your supplier would ship to a home without loading dock. A fellow neighbour runs a art framing business from home and gets a shipping container parked in the driveway. Normally it's not permitted. I liv e in the Toronto area with a large Chinese community and Gunpla is pretty much dead.

    A lot of point of contact items with Canada Post are being sent directly to a retail postal outlet for customer pickup for the safety of the carrier/customer. And also signature items are being signed for by the carrier and safe dropped (left in a safe place on the property) to avoid p2p contact. Not all carriers have the best judgement as to what is a safe place so please contact the customer support if your carrier is not doing there job properly. But keep in mind a lot of people try to make fraudulent claims so Canada posts decision on a case may take some time, they are overburdened, working through a pandemic and people as well.
