It looks like it is 64 usd to ship from usa with 300 usd  insurance.   The  last time I shipped to Can was  with the us post office and if value was under 500 usd they were pretty forgiving.      

   I would think listing it as pc parts  for under 499 usd price  would be legal and work  for customs.

the other day btc was 641 usd .  The usa group buy price is .75btc  .  So 641 x .75 =   481 that could be a true value customs number to declare.  call it pc parts.



If sidehack wants to help you  it works for me.  




 Best regards phil

It has been 3 years since I shipped to CAN. So I am not sure on the customs.

"pc parts" - would be legal. really?


 possible or a bit   more specific  like " pc parts for ethernet operations/calculations "
more important  is the price declared  which is in the 450-500 dollar range at 640 btc and .75btc price of  silentsonicboom's current sale.  I no longer ship to Canada  with ebay as the ebay/paypal rules suck for selling overseas.   If I sent something to Canada It would be near to the real value declared  and I would only take btc.

We Canadians are in a real pickle! The only AM dealer for Canada is gouging on price - 2 BTC direct for Cubes, or hawking them on eBay for max profit (across all territories I might add).

I see amazing group buys that are US only, and quite frankly I will not pay double or more the going rate simply because I am in Canada.

Feeling slighted Sad

Any suggestions?

Cheers




do you live near the border? Driving distance?

I've forwarded stuff to the UK before, Canada shouldn't be much different.
