You can pretty much expect any price in US dollars to end up as double that amount in Canadian dollars by the time exchange, duty,disbersment, brokerage, etc, etc, etc is all taken into account. UPS Kills the joy of f new part very fast. They make it real expensive. You can minimize the damage by shipping mail wherever possible and trying to get the shipper to state as small a value as is reasonabley beliveable and to have them specify the item as a gift and not a business transaction. Having stuff shipped to a US address and then picking them up stateside is a real money saver as well.
