Plus it will cost $2.95 CAD to send it back, and they only sell $1.20 stamps! That means every letter you're losing 65 cents.
You could look at it that way.
Or maybe the item will take a while to be signed, one or even two postage price increases in that time, but no worries because you overpaid and chances are that will cover the subsequent rise(s)
You don't have to get just the $1.20 USA stamps, Canada Post do $1 stamps, 3 of those will see you overpay (at current prices) by a nickel.
