Question

Did nobody read my original post that started this thread anew again?

I ordered one from Tropical Fish Outlet for US$44.99 + $8.99 shipping.

Now I am getting it shipped to my postal receiving in Blaine, WA so I only have to pay regular shipping rates and I get it much sooner than waiting for it to pass through customs (and all that extra cost for shipping to Canada, plus customs and duties!)

Everywhere else is selling them for US$59.99 or thereabouts + shipping!

I suspect when the do finally show up in our LFS, they'll be priced at CDN$75.00 or so (plus 13% of course).

FYI's for those thinking of shipping (2) from us sellers:
Drs Foster smith - 110$ for ground shipping to canada (fedex)
Marine Depot - 38.99$ UPS 3-4 day

Not that I've looked into it or anything...

Heh, I have tried to support my local stores - I asked each and every one of them in the past 2 weeks, if they could get these pumps... Got the same "I'll let ya know after the dealer visits the trade show" Gee I wonder who they were refering to

Canadawest - could it be that the rest of us don't have US postal boxes, and the retailer you speak of is a relative unknown? (psst move to alberta 6% tax )

Yeah, I'd buy one off you, too! I've searched high and low, but to no avail. Not in Canada. Anywhere!

I concur.

j&L says they know about them but have no idea when they will get them.

I would order on the spot if it wasnt for the rip off shipping charges.

Who are the WE you are referring to above?

Any hints on the "new lines"?

Plus $50 flat rate UPS brokerage fee. Last time I checked, Marine Depot will ONLY use UPS for shipping so you're stuck with that if that policy still holds.
