This is mostly directed to CDN CL owners..i was wondering when you bought things such as suspension or engine parts did the duty fee and the other fees kill you? Reason why im asking is im planning to lower my car at spring break, the week of March 13 and i wanna know if the fees are really bad.

 

depends what company they ship it through...if it's through UPS, ur screwed

 

dont most people from the states on ebay generally ship with USPS?

 

from what i've seen its been UPS, all the stores are usually UPS but maybe the private sellers send it through USPS...just ask before u buy

 

so if they ship with usps would i only have to pay duty fee? gst/pst? or both?

 

i think its just brokerage fee.....with USPS it shouldn't be bad

 

alright thanks.. cant wait to lower my 4x4 CL

 

Go! Go! Go!

 

You're in Vancouver? You should see if Mopac in Langly will price match a set of springs for you. I deal with them a lot and they are usually really goo about price matching, I actually usually save money by not having to ship and pay brokerage.

For a set of springs its hardly worth the hassle of importing em. Mopac carries Eibach.

 

I sell a lot of stuff on ebay, and am familiar with difference between USPS and UPS fees to canada, from where i am, boston, it is generally, atleast about 7-8$ less for USPS standard international shipping then it is for UPS's service, and thats for the cheapest option the two companys give.

It really isnt worth it for canadiens to buy shit from the us, esp not on ebay, the shipping more than eliminates the money you are saving by buying on ebay. I hate shipping there too..i think most people do, thats why the shipping is so much $$$

SOMEONE should open up a shop in canada for christ sakes, sounds like theyde make a killing. All i ever hear is canadiens buying from us companies and the horrible shipping costs.

 

Do you have any ideal how much it'll cost for a prokit at Mopac?

 

you can bypass customs charges if you request the package be marked as a gift...

 

buy from a Canadian source....like said earlier, see if they can price match it

not worth the hassle to buy off ebay unless it's something hard to find

 

does anyone know what are some good online cdn places to buy shocks and springs?

 

Yeah Mopac! Heck even lordco carries KYB and Tokico. The prices may suprise you.

 

I have nothing to add to the canadia thread

 

get out...

 

I just wanna frolick a little longer

 

for some reason, that's fucking halarious...i guess its that fluffy thing
