I buy all my stuff from local Alberta shops now. Almost all of them are willing to ship to me on their own time and that really helps, being in a remote location such as Bonnyville.

The one time I bought from a US company I had issues - and I got dinged hard with shipping to send the item back. It wasn't worth it.

The one time I had an issue with a piece of equipment I purchased from a local vendor he was very helpful and even sent me a replacement part before I sent him the defective one. If I had decided to buy said equipment for $50 less from the states it would have cost more to ship the parts back and forth in this case and wouldn't have been worth it.

Big ticket items I do try to buy gently used but I've learned my lesson with going that route too.

There's pos and negs to each side.
