Canadian Deals

[blakeatwork]

Perhaps my fellow Canadian brethren can help me out on this and maybe set up a Sub-forum with deals for us Canucks, as i find a lot of the deals in here, are mainly for US residents. No reason they should have ALL the fun....

blakeatwork,

This is a great idea.

You will probably get a more favourable response if you post this same question in the "Forum Issues" forum.

That's a good idea, although I don't know how busy it will be. Ya know, the ONE deal that comes through up here a year.

blakeatwork,

Take a look at http://www.redflagdeals.com, they post deals for us Canadians. There's a lack of good deals for us though, too bad

Also, check out Border Free, who will take US orders and bring em to Canada. Sometimes thier shipping charges are insane though...

either that, or make friends down in the states, or open a mailbox down there. Alot of the deals will ship to outside the US as well, sometimes you just have to ask/read carefully.

this is a hot idea.

On monday I think

On a side note as a .ca'er i'd like a canadian hot deals forum... only problem there are really not hot deals up here

Yes, but Borderfree really rips you a new one when it comes to shipping.

I wanted to order a stick of RAM yesterday (guess which kind) and they wanted $45.00 (!!!) for shipping. The kicker is, I only live 1.5 hours away from the border, and i'm in a major city.

 

[nwarawa]

Heh...I live 10 min from the border...so I get the best of both worlds.

I live about 25 minutes from the border. I have a US mailing address for all those US only deals and rebates! It costs about $100US per year but I easily make that back in rebates! Then you don't have to worry about using borderfree and their fees. I go and check my stuff about once a month or so. Hey, Just do it! You can PM me if you want more info...

The way I see it is this: If I go get a US mailing address.... I'll spend more money. That is bad.

and nwarawa, you get the &quot;best of both worlds&quot;, eh??? Are we still talking US and Canada here??? hehehe...

 

[Bnkrs]

I too would love to see a sub-forum of some sort devoted to Canadians. For you US people out there it would actually be a good deal for you guys too as the curr3ency exchange is pretty good.

Redflagdeals is already there for Canadian hot deals
A bro. has been using that forum and it's quite good for Canucks plus it gets updated all the time by Derek.

N8Magic: I not sure if you or anyone else has this experience but I was pleasantly surprise when I ordered 2 sticks of PC133 256MB module up to Toronto for my nephrew there was no custom or local tax. I told my nephrew to have $15 bucks ready for the FDX man when he shows up. But when it was delivered, no custom invoice, no question, just sign here! BTW this was a recent transaction from Crucial prior to ending their Free Shipping. I ordered it in NY and ship it to Toronto.
