Canadian Photo Order Fulfillment House?

->> Just wondering if anyone has a solution for a Canadian photo order fulfill-er?

We've got an online store setup with Zenfolio for our US operations that is working great so far. However, we tried to order photos up to Canada at our offices here, and got dinged an extra $14 by FedEx for Advancement Fees. After contacting Zenfolio, they told me this has only happened a handful of times, but I'd rather it happened ZERO times to my customers than hear about it.

We're doing event photos, mostly on site, but trying to get an online version going... I can't seem to find any companies in Canada that will let me upload some photos to their system, tell them the sizes, and have them Drop Ship that order to a customer in Canada. If anyone knows of a service like that... I'm all ears.

->> Thanks Evan and Anson,

I contacted PhotoStockPlus, and while they are located in Montreal, their prints all still ship from Dallas, TX.

Waiting to hear back from ShowMyPhotos now.

It seems weird that a Canadian fulfillment doesn't exist. Even a lab to upload my orders (RedCart or PhotoCart) and have them ship directly to the customer would be great.

->> And it appears ShowMyPhotos in entirely Canadian with printing done in Canada. However, the shopping cart and the way multiple sub-galleries works has me turned off.
