Whoopdeedooo:lala: Now I need some frame connectors and some LCA brackets and a steering box brace and................

 

Did you pay 50bux for that STB on e-bay? I only paid 20bux

 

It was $30 US ($20 + $10shipping) which is roughly $45-$50 Canuck play money. Had I put $20 I would have had one of you guys saying "well if you do the math it's actually $50". I had it sent to my Aunt's house in Northern New York. I'm getting a little tired of paying the UPS brokerage fees.

 

Yeah.. no **** eh? I got a couple sets of valve covers, and the brokerage fees is 120bux!!!!! More than what I paid for one set of valve covers.... grrrrrr.... and they never come here when I am home!!!

 

Nathan...when did you order the valve covers? I really want to get a set and I found a couple places to order them up here. Probably won't be buying them till next year though.

 

I got them on e-bay... I have a set of tall and short polished aluminum ball milled valve covers. They are in... I just have to pick them up from the main UPS office... I am debating if I should throw the tall ones on or not... I can sell ya the set I don't use.

 

For all you guys buying stuff in the US- tell the seller to ship the stuff to you in Canada via US Post (not UPS, but USPS- i.e. regular mail). Shipping charge itself for something about 5lbs is around $7-8 USD, but here's the bonus- it gets handed over to Canada Post, who adds GST to the price the shipper states on the label and a $5.00 'processing fee'-i.e. the brokerage charge is $5.00 CDN.

Only problem of course is that regular US Post can take 10-12 days for goods to arrive and US International Express Post costs more and still takes 6-10 days. As well- some sellers don't seem to want to go to the post office (especially if they ship alot of stuff via UPS or Fedex or whatever- it's alot easier for them to throw it in the pile of other stuff going out via the courier).
