Bought parts at Roversnorth to Canada. Parts $40. Brokerage $40
 
Just to remind all canadians....

If you order from Roversnorth, they use UPS and UPS will charge a brokerge fee. This will surprise your final bill.... plus the $16 shipping charged by Roversnorth.

My nightmare is :
order $40
shipping $16
brokerge $30
taxes/custom $10

I live in MI and bought from Rovers North once, will not buy from them again. Paid WAY to much for shipping.
I like the shipping options that you get from Atlantic British not the one price fits all shipping from Rovers North.
Not to mention what should have taken three days took a week.

Yep, had the same surprise when I ordered my rear light guards from RN. Price was around $70 and once at my door, it had doubled. For that reason, I haven't ordered anything else from the States.

I order from the roverparkboys.com which are located in Alberta. That way it costs me the price they quote me with shipping and not a penny more.

I have things shipped by USPS to Canada. It's not just Rovers North. UPS always charges Brokerage Fees.I bought a watch on EBAY and the brokerage charges were the same price as the watch. Always ask if you can have things shipped by your choice of carrier.

I drove by the RoversNorth "shop" when i first got my Disco... i was disappointed that clearly the vast majority of their business is in shipping parts out because there wasn't much to buy when i was there.
