Default shipping costs?

Hi. I just finished ordering some plants from cloud's orchids.
Could anyone tell me the approx. prices they paid for shipping? I am using a vanilla mastercard (pre-paid 100$). The total (with taxes) for the plants was 68$, which would mean I have 32$ left for shipping on the card.

Will this be enough? ( I live in Montreal, and clouds is in Niagara Ontario)

Thanks
Cam

I read on this forum, that someone in western ontario (about twice the distance from clouds to montreal), paid approx 30$ to ship 10 -15 plants.

I last paid about $50 to ship 15 plants to Newfoundland. Part of what gets you is the Xpresspost - the rates start fairly high. I'd guess that you should have enough left on the card, but I might see about topping the card up a tad, too. But I worry a lot....... often needlessly.

Im not sure what shipping is on your side of the boarder, but I'm sure you'll love the plants. Claudio is a great guy and has fantastic orchids. A few of us from western NY are making a trip up to see him in a few weeks, can't wait!
