I asked the lady at the post office about shipping to Canada she said anything under 4lbs would be $20. I went by what she told me. I have never shipped anything until now. I just started out on this site. I am sorry if i offended you. Without taking it to the post office and weighing it i have no idea the cost.
you didn't offend me, I was just surprised, that's all. I think she likely gave you incorrect information, or just generalized. I'm new here too, but I've mailed enough things in my life to know that if you put it in the smallest packaging possible, and if it's not heavy, it won't cost $20 to ship anywhere in North America. Don't worry about it.
