I am looking to find someone in upstate Washington who would let me get a shipment of sheetmetal delivered to that I can pick up from Canada. Anyone out there?

Check for PM

i suggest using www.thelettercarrier.com

I use it all the time, up to date, i have saved about $1000 in shipping, and won auctions that wouldnt normally ship to canada.. its in point roberts, and usually if you get a nice border agent you dont pay duty, PLUS no border line ups, to have an item shipped there will probably be like 5 bucks (the letter carrier charge), its a business address, not a personal, so freight is allowed to go!

take a look, youll never regret it!

Hey Vic I called Canada Customs and they told me there is no duty, but I would have to pay 12% tax on the invoice value. I am going to compare cost, but with Belair Bob I could save $700.00 on a $2,000.00 order. I got a quote from KMS for the same parts. Point Roberts would be awesome, $20.00 in gas. I just need a pick up to go get the parts.

There is a popular business in Oroville Wa. that receives packages for us in the Okanagan Valley. I have them listed as a temporary address on my credit card as some vendors will not ship to an address different from the billing address. It was a simple phone call and works great.

Hey Apex where is Oroville?

yeah sorry, not duty, just tax, but sometimes, if the value is only like 100-150 without shipping, they dont even bother! even then, i dont mind paying taxes, i save still a lot in shipping, and plus, any item i get sent here, i get "brokerage and customs", one time shipping from summit racing, 35.00USD item was 17.00 duty! half the charge for VALVE COVER BREATHERS!!? so ever since, pt roberts! best thing ever for canadians lol

Hey Vic that is a cool site. I am going to check with Belair Bob and see if he can ship there. Also going to double check with Canada Customs to make sure I don't get any surprise charges before I give em my credit card number. That would suck!

Oroville is a small boder town in North Central Washington State south of Osoyoos. It wouldn't be practical for you, I was suggesting amending your credit card address to make things simpler. Regarding your customs concerns, it is best if product is not from overseas(freetrade but have never had a problem) all I have had to pay is GST and PST (including freight).You are saving time and brokerage fees. Canada Customs does not add anything to your credit card, they don't know until you declare. I am waiting for some 14" Radial T/As now. Last time I brought some beer back, that hurt, should have drank Stateside.
