the best deal would come from you calling DD directly and telling them you're an american from Washington. Then have it shipped there.

You might piss a few people off but in the end you're saving yourself quite a bit of money.

DD is sold primarily in the USA. Infact they care so little about Canadians that people over in Europe get the newly released gear before we do.

My bet is that the Canadian importer of the DD line is a way bigger customer to DD Corporate than any one member of the general public. DD does infact care greatly about all of their customers, Canadian or otherwise. As far as Europe getting the product sooner than the Canadians do, being a US built item, one would think that it is either released to certain areas of the globe first by DD or that the CDN importer has ample inventory to move through before ordering the new products. Perhaps he even purchased the current products at a hefty discount instead of bringing in the new line to help the end customer save a buck or two.

Wagoneyezed, your comments are just off the wall here, no offence intended. Tell them you are from the US, get a address and ship it there? I suppose you also want the person buying them to smuggle them across the border, not pay taxes etc. then as well. I know, how's about you try it and get your vehicle impounded when they find that out what you are doing? Is that worth it?

DD's main exposure comes not from daily driven systems but from SPL competitors. There are many many more VIP SPL guys in US and Europe than in Canada that get the good gear first.

Case and point the first batch of Z1a's have come and gone...despite many Canadians asking for them and Modz (the Canadian distributer of DD surely asking for them) Canada got 0 of them. Not 1. Yet there are Europeans with them as we speak. Same thing happened with F motors, G motors, DD batteries and the Z2 if I remember correctly.

I never said smuggle it across the border. I go across the border to pick up goods from my shipping address atleast twice a month. And I obviously bring the necessary documentation with me to pay the taxes when you come back across. Still saves a ton of money on brokerage fees, a ton of time and money on shipping, and makes a lot of gear more available when you appear to be an American. I saved about $1000-1500 when I bought my 9912s by having them shipped to the US and paying taxes on them.

Theres nothing illegal about going across to pick up goods and bringing them back across. Theres also nothing illegal about telling DD your address is in Washington or Oregon. You save yourself money for a little bit of hassle of driving across. You might step on the toes of a few local dealers but oh well. Why would I put my money directly into their pocket?
