Progress RSB

Anyone know where I can get a Progress RSB in Canada or from a company that will ship USPS to Canada?

Try and talk to one of our vendor, Dezod, maybe he can help you out.
Bought a CAT from him with no problem.

He doesn't ship USPS only UPS.

Problem is UPS Charges about 35% extra for brokerage fees. USPS charges $8 CDN.

So his RSB is $150 USD, UPS charges me $52.50 USD for brokerage fee, that's not even including tax and exchange rate.

all together it would cost me almost $290 CDN.

Dezod has a special going on for the Progress RSB, I think it's around $145 shipped, very good deal.

PM me and i will let you know in a few days or so where i'm getting mine from. I have a few parts-suppliers I wholeheartedly trust, looking for me. Shouldn't be a problem getting one to you as well (hey we might get a mini group-buy, LOL).

Sounds good. I found a seller on ebay for $120, he's an authorized progress seller but he doesn't ship USPS either.



Why doesn't anyone in the US ship USPS???????

What is his eBay id? Is he the guy in Michigan? If so, seemed like a great guy to me as well, although USPS was slightly higher in shipping costs. As I said in my PM, I'll keep you updated. Shouldn't be more than a few more days until I have one or more Canadian sources for the Progress stuff. I know Contemporary Motorsports in Calgary is a Progress dealer - just waiting to hear back from Bob Blakeborough (my contact there) regarding pricing, availability, and shipping. You might know of him if you've ever dealt with TireTrends.com - he started that company (one of the best customer-oriented guys I've ever met).

Yeah, it's the guy from michigin. i broke down and bought it from him hehe. $120USD is not bad, I know shipping is a bit but the avg price for the progress RSB is $150 USD so it sorta works out to be the same with shipping.

Don't hold back on the contact, I might be in the market for some Progress springs as well.

Please PM me when you get it to let me know the final cost broken down by shipping, product, and (hopefully none), duty.

Thanks man!!!!!
