The strike by Canada Post's postal workers ended on Tuesday, December 17 (local time), as confirmed by Canada Post. Japan Post has also announced that international mail shipments to Canada resumed yesterday, Wednesday, December 18.

However, Canada Post has indicated that significant delivery delays are expected as they work through the backlog of mail accumulated during the strike.

Additionally, please be aware that backlogs often increase the risk of missing or misplaced packages during processing.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding.

We have an important update regarding our storage fees at Blackship.

, we will update our storage fees based on package size. Here’s a quick look at the new fees in US dollars:

Please note that all packages will still enjoy 45 days of free storage. If your account is set up with a foreign currency, fees will be converted accordingly.

For customers using Two-Step Checkout (Pack & Hold), be aware that once your package is marked "Ready to Ship," you will have 7 days to complete your shipping request. After 7 days, your ready-to-ship package will accrue storage fees based on the daily rate.

Finally, these new shipping fees will not be discounted based on your Blackship Reward Plan level.

We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause. We're implementing these changes because we're running out of space in our distribution center. While we search for a new location, this update is necessary to ensure smooth operations. Later in the year, we intend to reduce these storage fees once we've relocated to a larger distribution center.

We have refined our K-Pop Album Handling Service.
