getting parts from USA
Permalink  
 

Anybody got any ideas on how to get parts from the US.  I have a PO box at My US Address but it is closed right now.  I put a wish list together at MidFifty.  Truck glass, power window kits, extra reinforcing plates I need and a bunch of fasteners.  They have free shipping in the US when the order is over $1000.00.  This list came to $1065.00.  They got back to me with a quote for $635.00 to deliver to my house and $550.00 to deliver to a commercial address.  I'm guessing there is no way for me to drive over the border and get stuff and come back but perhaps that is not correct.  Any ideas?

www.summitracing.com/ Try summitracing they will give you a price to your door and returns are not a problem, also US> refunds arnt a proble either dispite what one parts shop preaches in Etobicoke, I have been buying parts since 2017, the price to my door step has always been cheaper than Canadian prices, shipping and brokerage fees, tax, and any duty, are all prepaid.

call them on the 1-800 and find out if the cross boarder shipping is still OK.

stay safe

Thanks
Found out that Summit will deliver to my place for free if more then $299.00. Also found out how to use MyUSAddress and get stuff to my place for a reasonable? amount. You get it shipped to the Ogdensburg warehouse. When they call you choose "push it north" and for $29.00 per vender they will send it to Prescott address. So if you buy from company ABC and EFG that will be two times $29.00. When it arrives in Prescott they will get you a delivery company and send it to your place for the cost of the delivery company. Canada Post is cheapest but limited on sizing. After that Fedex is there choice. They will only allow certain company's in. There is no curb side pick up like other stores use. The problem is they need signatures except for couriers. The driver shows up, they load him and he drives away, doesn't get out of the truck.
Interesting note, I priced out a delivery from Prescott to Kemptville and it was $51.00. To go from Prescott to somewhere in the same postal code was $45.00. Go figure. That was for a 25KG box.
