Re:I WON THE BIKE!!!!!!!!!!!! 1 Year, 8 Months ago  
Congrats on winning the bike !!

As far as getting it to Canada here's my experience:

I sold a bile to a guy in Canada and he had to put it in quarantine for 72 hours on the US side before exporting it. That gave the authorities time to do a title search and make sure it's not stolen etc.
After that he was able to pick up the bike and import it into Canada.
However, that's when things got tricky.

I wrote him a sales receipt and figured I do him a favor by lowering the price on the receipt. I also lowered the price on the Craigslist ad and printed it out before deleting the ad.

So far so good. Then I get the call from him, The bike was held by customs because they didn't believe him that he only paid $2500 for it.
So they interrogated him. He didn't budge until they showed him a print out of the ORIGINAL ad showing my original asking price. They actually scan and save Craiglist ads in from border states ! Unfortunately he then caved and they slapped him with a 50% tax/fine ...

Couldn't have been a nicer fella and he should have just told them that he talked me down on the price but being Canadian I guess that wouldn't be the nice thing to do.

Anyways...make sure you have all your ducks in a row before you attempt the import as the Canadian customs seem to be real sticklers.
