Well exchange is actually around 1.38 right now.. which means they are about $740ish. I'm guessing about 50-60 for shipping.. so all in all, about $800.

Not sure about the duty fee.. I guess if the box is labeled as a GIFT item, then there's no duty.. or a $10 item Even $100 would be good.. the duty would be little.

I'll check out TCC...

Damn, Tornactive doesn't ship to Canada...wtf!!

So basically you get a member discount from 7thGen as long as you're an American Member of 7thGen...I think we need a damn Canadian Vendor!!

Even if exchange is 1.38, if you pay through visa it's still like 1.5 or smthg. Anyhow, try and buy it here.

I stopped mainly from Canadian customers returning items becaue they did not want to pay custom's fee's. I cant afford to see if a customer really wants it or not. It happened more than enough times, to make me lose enough money to start this.
Also, we have "0" protection with a credit card from a Canadian Customer.

Believe me, I was getting 10-20 Can. orders a week. I hate to turn this business down

Well, first of all your add banner states discounts to 7thGen Members and free shipping (flashing away nicely). What it doesn't say is inside US only. I would expect to have to pay customs fees to get anything from the US unless it was a gift or something I guess.

Basically, what I want to know is...are you telling me the only way you'll ship to me in Canada is if I eat the shipping charges? If that's the case then fine...BUT...is there something we can do to level the playing field here? You said you hate to turn away the business and we hate getting shafted because of where we live...Is there nothing we can do here....???

I cant put 3+ pages of legal terms and details in a 460x60 banner. If you can let me know.

As for orders:
Only type of funds I will accept from Canada is an american money order (not international) If you have a friend send one to me I can then send the product to you..

OK...I think all you need to do is put "US Orders Only" or something like that on your banner...

d00d, if you drive the car in the winter get the KW's. Even Tein will tell you that you shouldn't use them in the winter...they'll tell you to take them off...lol..

The KW's won't rust...all stainless...and they're beautiful...I've seen, installed and used them firsthand....mine are on the way..!

KW's are nice, but Koni's are best for performance. If you don't need to adjust your ride height, or if you already have a set of springs on, Koni's are cheaper than getting coils ($2000).

KW is german, and there is a major distributor in British Columbia. As far as I know that's the only one in North America. A couple of the online shops have them but then you have to deal with markup.

I'll throw the link to ya here....The dampers you need for the 7thGen are the V2's. Unless you have an SiR then I think you can use the V3's.

KW is an amazing suspension setup. I rode in a 7th gen with them and the ride was amazing. I was speechless. The construction of the coilover is a work of art. Leave it to the Germans
