Vendor does not ship to Canada...
 
Just a heads up to Canadian owners...

Corner3Garage will not ship product to Canada at this time. Too bad cuz they sell some nice stuff too! Sad to see that we still have these kind of issues in today's market... :shakes head:

I will rather let it shipped to my relative's house and then get it during holiday when I went to visit them

wheee! 01-26-2011 04:44 PM

Lucky you! :icon17:

Zat_Zuma 01-26-2011 04:48 PM

I could have told you that :rolleyes:

Also VICTORxSE at speed element won't sell to Canadians either.

I have good intel on parts ...... PM me what your looking for and I can recommend some Canadian friendly shops.

I will honor all and any NDA deemed neccesary

wheee! 01-26-2011 04:52 PM

Lol, should have called you first Zat!

Yup, I was going to mention about Speed Element too. They told me it's because there has been "an increase in Canadian credit card fraud lately". Even though I told them I have a US bank account and VISA card, and a relative with a US address, they chose to ignore my PMs on trying to accommodate them to do business. Whatever, small fry. Stillen (Josh) and Forged Performance (Ryan) are among two that are Canadian friendly and have been great to deal with.

PS...I'd be wary of Zat_Zuma...he never shares what he's up to for his car, but he wants the dirt on what everyone else is doing. ;) :stirthepot:

That is just plain mean. They obviously think we are too small a market to mean anything to them. I agree with you about Stillen though! Josh was very helpful and service was fast.

+1 on Josh @ Stillen. NO problem what-so-ever from dealing with him.

However, I would suggest the following to vendors who doesn't take orders from Canadians because increase of frauds (I do these also with some of my internet businesses too)

- Ask for a photocopy (scanned or picture or whatever) of the front and back of a Driver's License, and the Credit card itself. (IIRC Josh @ Stillen asked me for this too, not a big problem for me)

- Accept money order, bank transfer, bank draft, etc. (Come on, you get your money first already, guaranteed not a scam)

Ignoring potential customers is bad for YOUR business. It ruins your reputation therefore lowers your potential profit. Don't judge ALL Canadians are frauds just because of a couple fraud transactions, which you may not have taken the necessary precautions on.

Just my 2 cents. Don't flame/bash plz.

PayPal speaks the universal language of commerce and provides security for both parties.

Not exactly. Paypal's protection is more on the buyer's side instead of the seller. Been there, done that.

Paypal's secure, but all these guys selling their own parts want the buyer to fork over the Paypal fees. That's BS.
