Now you guys in the U.S. know how us Canadians feel every time we try to buy something from the U.S.!!!!!!! Free trade my ****!! I bought my clutch puller bolt through EPI. $35. By the time it got here----about $90----around $40 of that was brokerage fees. Do yourselves a favor and get a Canadian buddy to buy it for you and send it to you!! Both the U.S. and Canadian consumers are getting screwed and UPS is written all over the condom. There has to be a way to get it shipped that we don't have to get dry humped so bad.

 

Mastr I am goint to have to remember that condom analogy, that was a good one. Whats the difference if a Canadian buddy sends it to you, wont they use UPS also, so wouldnt I have to pay a duty on it? I go to canada to fish every year, but they are really pretty easy at the border, we have only been checked once in 4 years. They are mostly looking for alchohol and cigars, and who would have any of that stuff anyways [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

Hollow, if you buy something from a company outside of the country you live in and ship it to you, then brokerage fees are due. If it is a gift from one friend to another, then brokerage fees don't apply. A guy could ship it Priority Post and it wouldn't cost half as much. I have a friend in New York and I sent her a box of stuff that weighed about 5 pounds. Cost me around $16. She sent me a box that weighed about 7 pounds and it cost her about $20. With a CDI weighing about a pound, I can't see it costing more than $8 or so. UPS is just bloody ridiculous with their brokerage fees and they are screwing both our countries. Like I said, free trade is just a complete joke. Us guys here in Canada get screwed way worse than the U.S. boys as most of the coolest, newest cutting edge atv stuff is in the U.S. and if we want it, we're gonna pay big time.

 

those are very good ideas about getting it to someone in can. first. Something else to remember is that if you recieve something from can. have them write it up as e return from service or something like that. As if you sent it to them first to have them do something to it, and then sent it back to you...then its a return, not a purchase.
