solved, maybe -
i removed "Foam-Cure EPP and EPO Foam Glue 4 oz" from my order, then made my order -
HK no longer ships GLUE to Canada?? even after i ticked the box promising not to glue my fingers together?

now, it seems i get a 404 error for the item -
https://hobbyking.com/en_us/foam-cure-e ... -4-oz.html

i can add the following link to my wishlist, but then can't nav to the item from wishlist, and couldn't order with it in my cart -
https://hobbyking.com/en_us/foam-cure-e ... ?wrh_pdp=3

feck it, switching to tape and thumbtacks!

Stephen,

Yes - the HK website can be problematic at times. I have been caught on many occasions and need to "play" with the order to make it work. I've also been caught adding items to my cart without being logged in - and therefore the item is tagged at a higher price. This is not corrected when you eventually do log in - and no credit can be provided.

Oh - and I am sure that you are following the thread on ordering from the HK USA site - beware!

Thanks for sharing.

Brian

thx, B! i sent my chat helper several screenshots, and it got sent to IT - i was certain there was a problem with that item's web page as i couldn't nav to it from my cart, wishlist, or search pages. and yep, i follow almost all the threads here, including the US HK warehouse thread

on the bright side, shopping cart doesn't flush contents after 24 hours anymore!
