Does it seems worth it to order from Canada now?[right][snapback]158356[/snapback][/right]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.
