Ordering from the US vs Canada for SuperFly
Posted: Wed Oct 22, 2008 5:21 pm
Hi Everyone,
I have a question for the folks who have recently ordered SuperFlies / HyperFleas. With the Canadian dollar dropping in value (a lot) almost every day now, I'm thinking that I ought to get my Super Fly or Hyper Flea in a hurry, before the dollar drops even more. Has anyone been charged a duty fee or some extra handling fee on their recent purchases of these planes from the States? If not, I'll order the Hyper Flea with the ESC from Texas. If there were duty and other fees, and if it was significant, then I'll consider ordering a SuperFly from Leading Edge Hobbies in Ontario. They charge $20 more for their SuperFly, but at least I won't have duty or extra handling fees to deal with. I'll still need an ESC though, plus everything else.
Just wondering what experiences people have had.
Thanks,
Andrew
