350BANSHEE350 Posted November 6, 2007 Report Posted November 6, 2007 Well i'm really upset right now because i was trying to order some pies and other little parts from moto-man.com about 900$ worth and well my parents talked with them and they have an add on there site that says free shipping till 2013 and well turns out its only for the usa and that they would only give 70 cents for a canadian dollar so in other words for dmc 916 pipes alone it would be about 1000 dollars plus the other 5 things i have on there i was wondering if anybody knows of any good sites that well give free shipping or good shipping and gives atleast split een with the candian dollar any canadian HQers where do you get your parts! i live in alberta and need some help badly i really want these pipes and my parents relly want to get me something for christmas , these are the only things i want. thanks for ANY help Mike Quote
Handyman Posted November 6, 2007 Report Posted November 6, 2007 www.motosportoutlet.com...free shipping for orders over $200.. Try rockymountainmc.com they are reasonably priced but too sure on their shipping....haven't ordered anyting from them that was over $100 but hey ship quickly from my experience Quote
Bansh-eman Posted November 6, 2007 Report Posted November 6, 2007 how far you live from the border? if your close send them to someones house and go pickthem up Quote
xXBlessedWithDeathXx Posted November 6, 2007 Report Posted November 6, 2007 your parents are going to get you 900$ worth of parts for christmas? Quote
350BANSHEE350 Posted November 6, 2007 Author Report Posted November 6, 2007 (edited) rocky mountian pays like 110 dollars for a rad cover to be shipped so i would definatly like to nagotiate with there shipping prices before i deal with them again never heard of the other site but i doubt its free shippng for canada i live in calgary so im in the middle of alberta and i doubt my parents would trust that option well my parents were going to get me pipes and i was asking for smaller parts from the rest of my family i work hard in school and my mom switched to a new job and got a nice pay check i have nothing else in my head that i would ever want for christmas so like i am really depressed Edited November 6, 2007 by 350BANSHEE350 Quote
kaotik1 Posted November 6, 2007 Report Posted November 6, 2007 I would call them and tell them BS.. The canadian dollar is more than the US dollar right now, and the parts hsould be cheaper, that they need to look at the exchange rate. Quote

Jokerzwild Posted November 6, 2007 Report Posted November 6, 2007 did a search www.partscanada.com or quadpro canada 866-565-6686 or 450-565-6686 should get you what you want Quote
350BANSHEE350 Posted November 6, 2007 Author Report Posted November 6, 2007 i thank you for looking but partscanada sucks they have no choices they only have fmf exhausts for 2 strokes and thats like 580 for just the expansion chmbers not including the silencers Quote
Duneman101 Posted November 6, 2007 Report Posted November 6, 2007 the canadian exchange rate is like 1.07CA to 1USD right now... just pay with a credit card(or anything visa related) and the credit card company will give you a much better exchange rate than what they were offering.... I think for the most part you just gotta deal with the shipping rate though unless you have friends in the US Quote
350BANSHEE350 Posted November 7, 2007 Author Report Posted November 7, 2007 well thats what my mom was saying about the visa company exchanging the rates and we do have a friend who lives in spokane? (sp) and she ships stuff to another friend my mom works with and sells them on ebay thanks for the help guys Quote
Fireroad Express Posted November 9, 2007 Report Posted November 9, 2007 if you are trying to get anything from the states and want to get it by christmas, you should order it now. canada customs is backed up solid. some people have waited a month to get parcels from the U.S. . lots of cross-border shopping going on this time of year due to the strong dollar.

inthemail Posted November 13, 2007 Report Posted November 13, 2007 i thank you for looking but partscanada sucks they have no choices they only have fmf exhausts for 2 strokes and thats like 580 for just the expansion chmbers not including the silencers dont whine about what you cant get be happy your parents are buying you anything more than gas. if your that dissatisfied with trying to get your fancy DMC's shipped from bullshit big box stores over the border, talk with a member about building you a set of real pipes and learn to hook up a deal yourself the honest way. sorry man i live in ontario i know how hard it is to get me fuckin parts, my parent bought me a banshee, and then stole it back for 3 years. im just glad to have been able to buy it back now that i deserve it! Im sure someone can help with the sale of some quality parts at a little guy price through the boards. Definitley. by the way my tors kit when ordered 3 years ago, cost about $185 Canadian shipped..... Old exchange, difficulty from the yankees and there strange shipping practices, you know, bullshit.
