Question for anyone from BC Canada

[tootalltechie]

Hi
I was wondering if anyone has ordered from LMC truck to get parts. I'm wondering what the cost to bring parts across the boarder and what the shipping might be.
any info would be helpful
thanks Gordon in Prince George BC

If you lived in the lower mainland area i would suggest signing up with Package Express. they essentially give you a US shipping address. all you do is go down at the Sumas border crossing and pick up your goods and come back. you will have to declare at the Canadian side and pay tax and possibly duty on it (if it was made outside north america).

Since you live up in PG its not likely that you will be making the trip down to pick up the parts in the states. i think that getting the items shipped by USPS would be the cheapest option, you'll have to ask LMC for a quote on the shipping. Definitely do not get them shipped by UPS, they will charge you an arm & a leg for brokerage.

With the Canadian dollar at par now, its a great time to buy from the states.

The government will still screw you getting them through the border.

that may be true but their price is still cheaper that Cross Canadahttp://www.crosscanadaparts.com/
but then again maybe not after government takes their share
