Question Canadian Orders

I am about to order a Gryphon for my '04 4.6 soon once I get the money together and was wondering if anyone here ordered one from Canada. I live in south-western Ontario and am curious about the customs fees, taxes and shipping fees. Just don't want any surprises when I it arrives at my door.

Thanks.

There's really several of your countrymen who have Gryphons. Corey ships to you via USPS, I think and there are, sometimes, delays in customs. I don't know that anyone has had bad surprises in customs fees.

It would be good if one of our other members "up North" chimed in on this, and they probably will. I just didn't want you to feel neglected.

I post stuff oversea's all the time and it's pure luck if your packet gets flagged ,inspected and taxed.
In the last 7 years only one of my packets/boxes have been flagged and taxed.

Welcome Circuit.....I my gryphon. I can't remember how much it all came to with duty and shipping etc, but i think it was around the 490.00 Can mark. This was everything including 3 tunes and the exchange. I had mine on my old 05 f150 and now run it on my stock 08, just had to get a couple of new tunes. I'm sure you'll love it.

Sounds good.

I was curious if they would add gst, pst and brokerage fees that would make the price over what I would pay locally for an Edge. I was quoted $525+taxes for an Edge but really want a Gryphon since I do plan on some mods once I own the thing. (I am never leasing again...)

Thanks for the quick replies.

If you planning on doing mods get the Gryphon. I originaly got an Edge and now I got Bill to upgrade it to a Gryphon with custom tunes.

Ordered this morning with 87 perf and 93 perf customs.

I was going to order in the next 4 weeks but the birthday sale prompted me to act now.

Looks like my timing is good for custom tunes too since they are just getting caught up.

Happy birthday Corey and I am sure I will enjoy my present.

So now the waiting begins...

It has been over 2 days since I sent the email and form. Is it normal to not get some kind of confirmation of them receiving the order at least?

I only ask because I am kind of nervious about having my credit card number out there in a pdf and just would like some kind of assurance that it went to the right place.

Yes, I have your order! Normally, it's not an issue since orders are processed within 24 hours. This week, we've been out of the office quite a bit since our daughter is visiting, and I have 8 new orders to actually get into the system. :puter:
