    $123.29 to ship 2 bushings to Canada? Seriously?

    Went to order 2 Pedders Suspension Lower Front Shock Mount EP4017 bushings online, and shippings was $123.29! For 2 bushings? Hilarious, but that has got to wipe out your Canadian sales.

    How about USPS shipping? Site doesn't have shipping options.

    Now you know why so many of us ship to a location just next to the border, then drive over to get it.

    I am 1200 km north of the border, so not really feasable.

    As I understand it you can blame your government on the shipping shot that all the deliver services charge with the exception of the USPS, some how they got a deal. :shocking:


    It has something to do with broker fees and taxes etc, most US web stores over inflate to cya shipping cost, so in dealing with a US business it is better to call or email directly to get a better set of shipping options.

    A phone call got the shipping for 1/3! Nothing like talking to an actual person to figure things out.

    Thanks, Jeff.

    It's not the governments fault. It's UPS greed.

    If you use the postal system, or self clear through truck freight, there is a 5 dollar customs fee.
