Shipping from Marco's?

I'm sure there are many here that have ordered from Marco's. I ordered a schematic and new rubber set and was just curious how long did it take you to receive your items?

Using no tracking and no insurance? About 10-15 business days.

Rather than creating a new "Shipping from Marco" thread I thought I'd revive this one...

I just went through the motions of filling an order out from Marco's to see what the shipping costs would be... and then abandoned the order. I got an email a short amount of time later offering 10% off my shipping with a message acknowledging they know shipping to Canada is expensive. It wasn't a huge savings but something is always better than nothing.

In my experience this is starting to become more common practice with retailers proactively offering savings to users who abandon the checkout process and I thought it was worth mentioning here.

I met Marc the owner in Allentown and he said to call or email them in order to get a quote for shipping to Canada.
They usually can ship you stuff for way cheaper than Global.
Although if your item fit in an envelope or a small box, Global might be cheaper as the flat shipping rate is 8.99 on the Marco website.
I had some coindoor decals shipped for $3.

There used to be a couple suppliers who would refund you retroactively after they packed and determined the actual shipping costs to them as the amount shown in baskets can initially be exaggerated for "safety." Always best to ask politely and see what happens.
