Where to buy Behr Radiator in CANADA cheap?
 
Fastlane here sells them for 180US, thats about 220cdn. Where can I get pricing like that in Canada? I asked my mechanic, and he told me they are 350cdn for a new behr radiator. Anyone know of Canadian web sites with pricing like fastlane?

Looking to buy from Canadian dealers only, don't want to get raped at customs.

I believe when items are sent as gifts, first 50cdn in value is tax exempted, after that its 15% plus brokerage. I don't know if u can get away with sending a radiator through customs and putting a low value. I know for a fact they take the liberty sometimes and change the value of items.

wow that is dirt cheap relative to what the dealership asks. The dealership is asking 405cdn plus tax. Even my independent MB mechanic is asking me 350cdn for it.

I would not rule out purchasing in the US.
A lot of suppliers will ship free within the US on items over $50.
If you live close to the border, as I do, you can have it shipped to a drop ship location(check the closest border town) usually for about $3 - $5 Cdn.
One I use will store goods for up to a month at no extra charge.

Or a friend or relative near the border.
Declare it at customs and you will pay GST and PST, but NO brokerage or duty!

I do this several times a year and include consumable parts for the next while.
I believe I save a bundle.

Better yet is if you can co-ordinate it with a trip to the US for other purposes.
You can bring back up to $750 tax and duty free per person if you stay a week or longer.

Good luck.
