Your final cost after purchasing from a us vendor....
So yea...
wanted a ballpark to how much us canadians gets hit with duties/brokerage before I make my final decision on some rims and don't want to get wtf ninja ambushed on the day of arrival.
Note: i'm too lazy to drive down to niagara and use the usaaddressinc so this is for others who have it shipped to their house ^_^
My friends lip + sideskirts $550 shipped from vendor...paid about $200 extra when received with fedex.
help a noob out

if available from Tirerack they give you price with duties and shipping. I think they have some deal with UPS. Worth checking out if they have the rim/tires you're thinking about.

its a service they provide to customers with corp accounts. All they do is apply the fee's to the shipping cost.

Do not ship with Fedex, I got some books from US and shipping is $6.00 which is not bad. but then a month later i got a bill asking for $26.00 for custom, GST(which includes the shipping charge??!) and BS processing fee ($9.00) my books only cost me $20.00.
go with USPS, got a set of rims and tires send from US and no extra chargem deliver right to my door.

my volks cost 3g's shipped. but the vendor did me a favour and wrote a copy reciept that went with the pacakge for 200 per wheel. in the end i payed peanuts. most vendors ive talked to are willing to do that. then they either mail you the real one, or fax, email whatever.
