As you all know shipping to the great white north tends to be a little prohibitive in that shipping really adds up.

I have more than one customer that has asked about it, so thought I'd post a thread.

Looking to see who would be interested in the GBs that I have up to consolidate in one shipment. I'm sure there would be some redistribution costs, but someone would need to be the hub.

We could to :
The air cooling fins
front strut tower rubber
A-Arm bushings
Rear trailing arm bushings
Rubber roof holders
Sail vinyl with metal trim
and the Squirter hose GB I have yet to list.

This can be shipped in a large FedEx ground package pretty easily, they hit the recipient for $20 in customs fees for clearance.

The key is the cost for redistribution. I can put all into one package and have weights to figure out the Canadian postage cost.

Just thought I'd float this out there to see if it would work.

Mark....this is absolutely true. The cost of shipping stops me from ordering tons of stuff!! In Calgary there are 5 or 6 of us in our 914 group. I'm going to try to organize a group purchase to share the shipping costs which are significant. In most cases it's the same price as the parts purchased, as you know.
I think keeping it local is the only way to go...
