Us Canadians always get screwed when buying anything from the US ... Canadian customs loves to rape us with all of their fees!

i just bought a soccer jersey, cost me $70US and i had to pay $33 canadian in taxes and customs fees!! what a joke!
 
It sounds like that is no longer the case though if what people above are saying about the Fedex rates are consistently true.

As I mentioned in my first post in this thread, that trend seems to have ended. Prices are much more reasonable these days, both in the cost of shipping AND the duty/handling fees at our end.

The other thing to consider is that most Sideshow exclusives sell for at least 10%-50% more than their original sale price on eBay. So, any savings from buying from an online seller would be offset by the increase in the base price for the item. Getting dinged for $75 for my Patient Zero ex. PF is peanuts compared to how much he's going for on eBay right now.
 
Well this is pretty good news to hear, I hadn't had anything delivered recently since I usually just ship to my wife in NYC, but if costs are reasonable, I might get a few up here.

I imagine with their upcoming Canadian distribution changes, it'll only get cheaper.
 
the thing is the item has to be shipped as a gift or the fees will double.im very happy with my first purchase of a pf from the states.only $15 in fees,for a big pf declared at $200 isnt bad at all.and it wont be my last pf coming from the states.but it has to be usps.l would not buy a pg from the states if it were shipped any other company because that were you get hit with insane fees.
 
about how much for shipping and then fees can you go into some detail.

PFs seem to be 25 on the US end. GST + 11 dollars at the door (in alberta)

Predalien 1:1 bust, 175.00 on the US end. Not bad considering the size of this thing.
 
i can help all canadian collectors if you are looking for reg version stuff..

i have not access at any exclusive but all reg version.

not made this for money but to help collectors like me :)

Like exemple have pay Vader bust 1250$ CND... Ackbar bust 500$ CND..

If you pay shipping i can find lot of stock for you but have to be recent stuff or pre order.

You save customs and tax and maybe more..
