I will get a canada post price for you... if you are pooling shipping with someone else from Calgary it can get cheeper.. for example it is 22 bucks shipping for one ballast so it is 70 plus 22 not 30.00 which means just over 90.00 including taxes.. now if there were 4 going to Calgary the shipping would be 42.06 which makes them 80.50 each including everything.. if you can buy them for 80 there it would be at least 5.00 more.. and for 6 ballast the shipping drops down to about 8 bucks each so it would be 78.00 each ballast roughly.. now is that a huge savings.. not over 80.00 but it is cheeper..
I Just looked up the delivery to Calgary for two ballast.. it works out to 17.66 total for two ballasts in 4 days.
27.45 for 4 ballast in 4 days to Calgary.. so looks like standard parcel throught canada post is cheeper..
