GB: KYB AGXs -- TORONTO, CANADA ONLY
hello all!
I think I may have finally secured a decent price, but there
will still be some effort on my behalf to get these to Toronto.
Now that I have received box dimensions and weights, I'm
thinking that we have two or three packages sent to two
or three locations in Canada.
Basically, I'm thinking one or two packages come to my
house in Toronto, and another can maybe go to Mike in
Ottawa (Blaxxxima)?
What do you guys think?
so far, those interested are:
FLO_BOY (me)
Dev
Blaxxxima
Lefty
Andreyy
Lo-Tse
Kink420

Basically, I will receive the goods in NYC, re-pack them, and ship
via FedEx (er, something like that) to my house...
However, it breaks down like this:
- set of KYB AGXs --> $340 US (actually, a little cheaper... shhh!)
- shipping from NYC to Toronto --> approximately $60
- taxes and duty --> equals 21% of total VALUE of goods (so, it depends on how we classify them
).
- brokerage fees --> guessing $40 US
GRAND TOTAL -- for 6 sets --> $2040 + 60 + 120 + 40 = 2260 US or about $3460 or about $580 CDN!!!
couple things to note:
-- duty is still undetermined.
-- taxes are still undetermined.
-- shipping is based on 60lbs (100cm X 50cm X 50cm)
so...who's in?

However, we're waiting on a price from a local shop --
I'd rather spend the extra few $$$ and have a local place
to ***** too should anything go wrong (knocking on wood).

Recalculation : 2040 + (200/60 x 60)shipping cost + 428.4 + 40 = 2708.4 US. Assume a 1.55 exchange rate, total cost in canadian=~700 cdn. This is actually quite close to my original estimate.
As I said, I am interested. Please verify the shipping cost a bigger load. I suspect we will have more than 6 people want to buy the AGX's. Thanks for the effort for setting up this GD.

You should keep a running list on the first post of all the names of those people who are interested. Will make the efforts easier to coordinate.
Like I've said before, I don't mind doing the Montreal hook up for some people. I can do the T.O. trip / Montreal trip some day over a weekend, or space it out over 2-3 weekends, if some guys aren't desperate.
OR, even better, I pick em up in T.O. and someone from Montreal comes to Ottawa to pick them up. That would likely be the most amicable solution.

OK -- some notes:
1) I won't declare the full value on the customs forms...so, less tax and less duty
2) shipping 3 sets at a time will run about $100 CDN. so, for 6 sets we're looking at $200 CDN for shipping.
So...some more calculations:
$329/set (X6) = $1974 or $3029 CDN
Shipping = $ 200 CDN
6% Duty = $ 36 or $56
TOTAL (6 sets)= $3285 or $547.50/set

Actually, since that's 9 Canadians (likely confirmed - boyz, do you have the $$ now, so we can get this done anytime?), I'm sure we can piggyback a few Yanks on this to make it a sure thing.

No, seriously, this is how it'll go down:
1) everyone would give me about $600.00
2) I'd order the parts and have them delivered to my hotel in NYC.
3) I'd re-pack the order, fill out customs forms, and ship to my house.
4) After calculating all the costs (which I'll document) I'll write
"Rebate" checks for the balance.
make sense? please note -- I'm not making any money here...nor am I
getting a better deal -- Yes, I am a moron -- but a nice one!!! you benefit!!!

Sounds like what we need here is somebody to smuggle these puppies in... Anybody up to it? Tape them to the bottom of your car, up in the wheel gap, remove the spare and put some in there... Who knows, if i do go to NY, i might try this out...
