Re: All Pro Supplier In Canada?

Yeah man. I can relate. It has happened to me before as well. You almost want to return the damned thing b/c it ends up being the same price is buying here. I have never heard of Parcel Post. Is this something I would ask the company to use for shipping? Or do they look after clearing customs etc?

Parcel post only works on some things. It's just regular mail. USPS and Canada Post versus Fedex/UPS etc.

TRD intake or smaller from a vendor = parcel post

Rock rails/skids = no parcel post love. UPS gets your money. All of it.

What are you looking for? Maybe you can have them delivered to a UPS store in Blaine, pick them up, and declare them yourself...?

This is one part of Canada I despise. I blame UPS and Fedex for it though, not Canada.

Re: All Pro Supplier In Canada?

Thanks Joel.

Yeah. I suppose I should blame myself to b/c ultimately it is my lazyness that keeps me from going down to the states to pick the stuff up. I have a buddy who lives there and have had stuff shipped to him in the past. It's just always annoying when you come back across the line and the CBSA Guard gives you the stink eye b/c I am bringing something back into Canada! hahaha!!

Re: All Pro Supplier In Canada?

U.S.P.S. is your best bet for shipping, after that I would say FedEX and least of all would be U.P.S. U.P.S. is great for anything in the lower 48 but when they have to cross the border their prices and service go to pot.

I do believe most of what All Pro carries and sells is Made in USA and should be duty free. You should only be paying GST/PST.

Can't forget about Geyhound, although the slowest...it works.
