Brayn in 350Zonlinestore give me the deal is $3120U.S,include Toyo T1s, and include mounting,balancing,center cap,everything shipped to Vancouver.
The guy is very nice, and answered all my question very quick, but until now, i haven't place the order because of my paypal's transaction.
i will also update all the info about the shipping, tax,etc a few days later, hope i can get them as quickly as he told me (5days after shipping out).

suppose it depends where in the us they are coming from, and how quickly the company can actually get them onto the truck.

best case scenario would 3-7 days i'd think, could be more...

The simplest way to get them into Canada is to have them shipped to one of the PO Box companies in Blaine, WA. All you have to do is call them up and register and then have the shipper send the stuff to their address with your name on the package. When the shipment arrives you will get a phone call to come and get the package. You can then clear the stuff at the border yourself and avoid any further brokerage or handling fees. I have done this lots of time. Try "Hagens of Blaine", 360-332-5246, they have always given me good service.

giddy,
17 bucks for a DVD. In addition to the price of the DVD. Hmm. Was the $17 only the brokerage fee, or was it gst, pst, duty, and or brokerage. Otherwise, I'd hafta ask, what vid would that be? From Vivid? ;o)

Cheers,
Derek

Never use UPS for cross-border shipping, their brokerage fees are off the wall. I bought something last year, it was 14.95, I ended up paying 15$ in fees.... Meanwhile with the USPS i don't pay any fees... oh and if i am not there to pickup my item, it will be at the local post office and not 30km from my house at the only UPS depot in the vacinity.

i think it was just the brokerage. my wife would probably know better. i agree it was high. the worst part was that it was a gift for her and SHE was the one who received the bill. not sure why they do dumb things like that.
...
i wish it was vivid

edit: i just ordered a dell lcd monitor last week. it's being shipped to our sister company in south carolina. not sure how i'm gonna bring it up here yet... i'll post how much i pay for brokerage in the end. should get the monitor by the end of the week (hopefully).

I hate UPS. I just received some parts today from the states, pedals, z-tube etc. I had to pay them $99.50 arg.., my order was only worth around $200 Canadian.
