Shipping to Canada a pain??
I was just wondering if there's anything special I'd have to do to ship a Blow off valve to canada? Any dealing with customs and stuff or just box it up and ship it like normal and it will get to the guy? thanks

You have to mark on the slip what it is,value and wether it is a gift,commercial sample etc, the slip you fill out has a couple extra sections.Most of all the cutoms stuff happens at the recevers end.It adds about a minute to shipping a item.

Re: Shipping to Canada a pain??
they randomly open the boxes on our end if thers any suspiscions of extra long ****** in the packages
fukin duties are middle men that rip us off
as long as the package is valued under 20$ ull save the receiver the assle of paying extra fees at the door
and don't ship form a business address cuz you'll get taxed on the item no matter what the value
best best is to ship as GIFT and mark value as $20

if you absolutly need to, send it air mail, they dont randomlly check packages, and things never get held up, thats what our company does....
the worst time i ever got charged with duties is when i bought a stock yamaha banshee exhaust system on ebay for 10 bucks and the *** put 10 bucks on the huge *** box they were in, the border didnt believe it, so they opened it up and thought it was worth 150 bucks and charged me for that amount
ooh BTW if anyone wants banshee exhaust pieces, hit me up, i got lots, i used to buy sets just for teh expansion chambers

look on the UPS customs form and check the box Appeal (Non-Commercial goods)
all you'll need after that is a written and signed letter from the guy that you bought it from saying that the item was a gift or was wrongly valued and youll get all your money back in a money order
its the only loophole with UPS but you need the help of the shipper
so for the price of a stamp you can claim ur cash back
trust me it works, ive done it many times
