| Anyone know the best (=cheapest) way to ship a 35 pound thing (sub) from US to here (Calgary)?
UPS quoted $90 USD from Miami to Calgary. Is that as cheap as it gets?
Thanks, (eh!)

| Do a search on the topic in question. I found the best US/Canada shipping methods posted by members with lots of experience by doing a search. The members here are very helpful, but it's best to do the above first before asking a general question. Cheers. | |

| Any idea how much duties, taxes, brokerage, anything else fees, would cost to get like an $100 (35lb) sub over the border to me? | |

| A crapload of dough dude + if you have a warranty issue then you have to go through it all again. Buy local and support the local authorized dealers.

| If you go with UPS you will probably be looking at about 75 dollars to get that over the boarder. | |

| +1 for supporting local dealers, but if you *must* have it shipped from the US, insist on USPS. UPS and FedEx will rape you with brokerage fees. | |
