Default Canadians

hey guys,

I live in Montreal, Quebec,Canada and over here its very hard to find parts online that will be shipped here. I really want the Descendant exhaust for my car but nobody will ship it here without an incredibly outrageous shipping fee.

any ideas?
any fellow Canadians having the same problem?

I'm a full time worker and full time student. Paying a crazy shipping fee wont work for me

any help is appreciated!

I live in Vancouver and we have a couple of warehouses in Washington State that Offer to act like a receiver. You set up an account with them ans ship the package to their address, they send you an email when received and you go across the border and pick them up and visit the customs office and declare your purchases. The only down fall to this is if the seller wont ship to somewhere else other than the paypal address. Try looking for a receiver like this in your area as you are pretty close to the border and it might work for you.

You would need to find a store which offers the KinekPoint service. Usually it's a UPS Store but it can vary.

I did a quick search and Montreal is a lil far from the border but drive south to NY or Vermont and you'll find them

It is a small fee (usually $5 -$20) but its worth the drive for the cost savings.

I do this a lot. I actually just ordered HID's from DDMTuning and sent them to a UPS Store in Lewiston, NY where I'll pick them up next weekend. I'll save a total of $40 doing it this way
