They likely bought the side rails here and had them powdercoating. Pinball.Center does ship to Canada. They are still available.

The only benefit right now is you can get stuff across given the border is likely closed for a while. Even in the US, they typically charge $5US to receive an item. So $6.99CDN is pretty well the same thing.
So another update. I ordered some mods that totaled to $220US, so it exceeded the $150 CDN maximum and therefore could be subject to duty. I provided Shippsy with a receipt from the seller than indicated the item was made in the USA, and they did not charge me any extra duty. So I am finding...
Looking to sell my AC/DC Topper. Here are some details. Excellent condition, brand new. Comes with remote control to change colour or you can have it flashing or fading out with different patterns. Asking $120 Canadian.
This AC/DC topper is a great addition to this fantastic game. A 3D...
Now with spring almost here, thought I would see if anyone might be interested in this FREE TV. It is a beast but works 100%. Original remote and picture in picture. Be great for a cottage or basement. PM if any questions.
The website actually works pretty well. They upload a picture of the delivery slip from the box and then you upload the details of the package and the cost, with the receipt. This way you only get charged taxes on the cost and can mostly avoid any duty (if you stay under $150 CDN or can prove...
Ok, so I tried out the Shippsy service for the first time. I stayed below the $150CDN threshold for duty. Process was excellent. They send you a message when the package arrives in Niagara Falls, NY. Then you upload your invoice to show the contents and the cost. I was only charged 13% tax...
Thanks, what was shipping like? I was looking at ordering them from Nitro but it showed $52US for shipping so I can actually get them cheaper from the US. They only charge $15US from Cointaker to a US address and then I can get them to Markham for $6.99CDN. Around $30US cheaper than Nitro.
Wanted to check if anyone happens to have a topper for Shadow, AC/DC or GnR (DE) that they are willing to sell. Also looking for some mirror blades for my Stern AC/DC. PM with the details. Thanks.
Kind of on topic, I personally have downgraded from the AC/DC Premium and Kiss Limited to the Pro versions. Especially on the Kiss, don't see the added value. I do prefer the Metallica Premium, more for the better lighting.
Yes, it is only 13% of $800 in Ontario. If you go with family members, you can multiply that savings. I am trying the Shippsy service for mods to see if it saves me any funds. I ordered a few things from Cointaker so will see how it goes. I think if you can get the seller to indicate on the...
I wouldn't expect the Cdn dollar to go up in value just because of the border opening. It is really tied to the price of oil so if oil can get back to $100 a barrel, we be golden again. Plus other factors like interest rates, etc.
I have bought a few games in the US in the past. It really comes down to condition and finding a game you really want. I have been looking for a WOZ RR so likely have to buy it in the US. Pinballs are exempt from duty as they are made in North America. But you are still subject to pay GST in...
