Chit Chats exists because Derek Nolan wanted to reduce the cost of shipping his books from Canada to the U.S. He realized he could drive across the border to the U.S. himself and ship his books to his customers at a fraction of the price with USPS. Before he knew it, other book sellers started paying him to take their books and Chit Chats was born. Derek Nolan saw the biggest pain point for many businesses was shipping costs. This made it difficult for many small businesses to compete in the ecommerce industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chit Chats levels the playing field so Canadian businesses can not only compete but thrive!&nbsp; Ship with Chit Chats today so your business can expand into markets beyond Canada and keep your profits with our low-cost shipping rates.
