Curry Acura No longer shipping to Canada!

So Curry Acura has officially ceased their shipping to Canada, I knew it was too good to be true as they offered flat rate shipping via FEDEX for next to nothing (usually under 10$) to Canada, and they prepaid any cross border duty fees. Called them up and spoke with the parts manager as now there is no option to ship to Canada anymore on the online shopping cart. He stated they got a huge Fedex bill from all their Canadian orders. No Future plans on ever bringing back Canadian shipping. Since I've been ordering parts there for the past 3 years anyone know of any other sites that ship to Canada?

Tried Delray Acura (acuraoemparts.com) but shipping to Canada is crazy expensve as they get UPS to act as a broker.

Now that's a win-win situation.

Crap. This is terrible news. Not only did they cover the duty, but they also had some of the lowest prices out there.

Hi, I just registered because I found this thread. I have an RSX/S and I buy from Curry Acura all of the time so I figured I would chime in here. I get the whole stop shipping to Canada thing sucks for Canadiens but the thing to remember here is there actual prices are still lower than most other online Acura sites. I checked around and they are still cheaper. I think if you call them up and you are willing to pay the taxes on your end, they will still ship to you. I buy and sell on Ebay a lot and it is expensive to pay taxes duties or fees as the shipper. I am still buying from them. They didnt change their prices, just the shipping policy. I cant blame them......they are a business after all.

Alright, I am not sure about promoting a business on this site however I run a shipping company that specializes in cross boarder world wide shipping. shop in the USA and Ship to me and I ship anywhere in the world. because I live in Oregon there is no sales tax on anything you buy so extra savings. I ship via the postal service in 90% of cases and have huge discounted rates.

if anyone has a contact for someone from that company I can talk with as well I can advise them on why they had the problem and how to fix it. I have consulted for shipping companies and dealt with this issue TONS.

Let me know how I can help anyone out.

I don't sell bumpers, ray laks acura in buffalo is probably the closest warehouse to us. best thing to do is take a drive down there and pick it up yourself.

This is the most important part. With Curry Acura there was never any surprise customs/duties/taxes when the parts showed up at your door. They always covered it on their end and offered flat-rate shipping.

If that's the case then 3 boxes @ $895 is going to have some huge duty on it..


My depo tails were only $200 in 1 box, and I got charged $18 for duty

Hey guys, a guy I know ordered a rear lip for a 2005 TL from Curry Acura and they shipped it after he called them......though he agreed to pay the taxes, duties and fees. Even with the shipping, it was still cheaper than his local dealer in Ontario.

Yeah I tried to order from them 2 weeks ago but I got a e-mail saying they stopped Canadian orders for now until they reach an agreement with FedEx. Too bad. Curry shipped out SUPER quick and had very low rates. Packaged all well.

Don't go to Delray. They are stupid.
I ordered a lip from them last year and put the value for duty as $2000 instead of $200 so I had to pay $$$$$ out the ass for taxes. Took them 2 weeks or so for them to refund me and the part manager was a dick. And shipping took forever (coming from Florida). And it still arrived bent. Never again.
