I'll step up on this one we are the vendor. We lost over $4000.00 in under 60 days due to selling to Canadian customers. This loss ranged from stolen credit cards where credit card information could not be verified due to a non-US issueing bank being involved and used to purchase goods , Canadians refusing to pay customs duties and merchandise on those sales coming back and losing all shipping charges and shipping to Canada's not cheap and others not doing the required Canadian documents on imported goods themselves and then refusing to pay Fed-Exor UPS documentations fees, which means they still get there parts but we then get the documentation fees bill.
Losses due to the ended us doing any international sales. I'm sorry if you feel we were slighting you because your Canadian but the fact is we can't afford losses like this and stay in business. Thus the requirement that credit card purchases be made with only a USA issued credit card and that we will then only ship to a USA address. My appoligies if you feel slighted but its definately not personal nor a slight to my Canadian neighbors and fellow truck lovers!! GMCPaul |
