What I was saying is if you were tirerack was only shipping UPS it might not be worth it.

$2286 / 4= $571 each + GST + PST + IIRC 4% duty (because they're made in N. Korea) + $60 EACH brokerage fee =

$743.81 each x 4 = $ 2975

Not a huge difference.

I would do what ZTWsquared suggested above, pick them up in NY. I've done that before, too.

(Y'know those pics of my collection in the "Was it worth it?" thread? 95% of my collection came from the US. Me and Mr. Brokerage Fee are old friends.)



TEAM PITA: Don't settle for a wannabe, only accept the real deal.
