Re: FS: WOZLE Menace didn't pick it up, but yes, it's only a few days old. I'll msg Graham. Thanks Mike!

Manufactured Nov 1st, this one has all new boards etc. Has less than a dozen plays on it currently. I have Cliffy's (full set, not yet installed) and the lighting kit (also not yet installed). Asking $8750 o.b.o. Located in Toronto. Potentially open to trades involving Met (Premium or LE)...

I decided to spend the time tracking down the right people to ask and after a little work spoke to a Customs Agent. Even US citizens are supposed to pay the full 13% taxes unless they are a business and have some sort of registered number. Canadians can request Import Account numbers and if the...

I was advised to declare much less than the actual purchase price of the game I purchased. In hindsight, this would have worked 100%. The customs person didn't give the game a second look, or question the purchase amount. That's not what I'm about though. I'm not going to outright lie or...

Absolutely agree with you -expect 13% and hope for the best. Still, a 13% mark-up on pins makes nearly all imports too expensive to consider as there's not that much of a difference between US and CDN prices from what I've seen. (Not including the travel etc) It would be nice to have a solid...

Thanks for the info. I agree with you -why would any Canadian import, and instead why not use a US citizen? EXCEPT... when a US citizen brought my AFM into Canada, they were charged 5%. Same scenario and fees for another used on Pinside who brought a game into Canada to sell in Montreal...

If anyone knows a buddy who works in Customs, I'd love ot hear why an American is charged 5% (GST only) to bring a pinball machine across, but a Canadian is charged the full 13%. When importing my SM, the Customs officer understood that the American was bringing the game across for me, so...

I'll bet you have more luck if this wasn't in the "for sale" area. Try posting in the "wanted" section.

Re: Needed: Detroit pick-up, Toronto delivery Deal in the makings. Nice to see that more pins are available if you don't mind paying over current market value. Thanks for the help guys!

Re: WTB HUO SM -Top Dollar Offered! Not sure about your math Mike. $6000 + 3% exchange +13% HST = $6983 CDN + delivery/gas&time.

Willing to pay a premium for your HUO Spiderman. From what I've seen, this game is $5000-$6500 depending on condition. I'll offer $6750 if you have one that's flawless. That'll save me from getting one State-side for 7k. Anyone? Thanks!

Re: Needed: Detroit pick-up, Toronto delivery Well, let's see what happens if I post a wanted ad for a HUO Spiderman for $6750. Thanks for the comments!

Re: Needed: Detroit pick-up, Toronto delivery Either that or give the cash to the person who's going. -Provided they're really well known in the community. I figure if you're going to trust them with a pin, you may as well trust them with the cash, right? Judging by the lack or response, I...

Re: Needed: Detroit pick-up, Toronto delivery Good call Mike -except that I would likely get USD here at the bank and deliver it in person. Better exchange rate and no PayPal fees.

Re: Needed: Detroit pick-up, Toronto delivery Yup -pricey. But I MUST have it!! : ) Besides, not that expensive when you compare it to any of the new pins being released, and this one is proven at least!

Re: Needed: Detroit pick-up, Toronto delivery Spiderman -if I can find a way to get it here. Might break down and rent a van, but if someone else is already going that way, I'd much rather kick in some cash instead.

Please let me know if you're heading into the States, returning via Detroit. (Possibly for expo?) Thanks! -Drew

Pretty sure I'll be taking a regular size sheet. -Chambahz!

Not exactly "Price Policing" as I'd love to hear it sells for that much. Mine's still in mint condition but I never figured it was worth anywhere near that much since NIBs are still available. (Mine doesn't have a shaker though)

Wow! $7500 for ACDC Premium with a shaker? And "firm"? GLWS!
