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.

Is shipping USPS an option?

When I get stuff shipped I prefer USPS as you don't get dinged on brokerage that bad.

Also if the customer lives not far from the border, there are warehouses that specializes in receiving packages for Canadians for a reasonable fee. they just have to add the address on their CC card.

The shipping hub would be best but it's just too hard to coordinate and a pain since we don't have flat rate boxes like you do.
