Parts in Canada 5 Months, 1 Week ago  
Hi,
Where do people order parts in Canada from? I've tried Fortnine- good but limited parts, Bike Bandits and all other vendors I've found are out of the states- and either super long waits and duty- or places such as JetsRus wouldn't even mail out parts to Canada- even with pre-payment. You literally need an american credit card with an american address- I'd like to expand my parts availability within canada....
Thanks
Tim

I know other Canucks who have ordered stuff delivered to themselves c/o the postmaster just over the border. They go retrieve it when delivered.

Appalachian Trail hikers do this all the time!!

I get them locally from a Parts Canada dealer. I usually get 20 to 25% off retail so not bad. But depends if some things are cheaper online too. Pros and cons i guess.

Exactly what txulrich said.
I'm in Ottawa and have parts delivered to a UPS store in Ogdensburg NY (1 hr drive)
You are 30 min from Blaine Washington, it should be easy for you to get parts.
