You need to get your priorities in the correct order!

Have you looked into shipping to the U.S.? I know every time I ship something to Canada, it costs more than it should, and goes into a customs black hole with no trackability and a large invoice for random fees and duties that shows up a month later.

Is it the same coming in this direction? With a guaranteed "total cost" to the U.S. removing that uncertainty, they'd probably sell more easily.

Shipping trans-border is a pain in the butt, and the costs are all over the map. When I bought my sport seats from a guy in New Jersey, I had shipping quotes all the way up to more than $2,000!

I've had excellent luck with freightquote.com They shipped my seats for about $350, including customs brokerage. They do a lot of eBay business, and really make it easy. If anyone in the US is interested in those wheels, I'd give them a shot at quoting. No affiliation. Just a happy customer.

No, but if a seller treats me like I'm special, then I'm much more likely to be his customer.
