Another option is Sonnen Porsche. Have them ship by USPS right to your door. No brokerage, duty or even HST if under $250.

My sincere apologies.



I will send more once I figure out how to use the RL app that keeps crashing on me.
Damn that's a beautiful car. Is that Carmine Red?

I'm waiting for my Carmine Red Targa GTS. How do you like the colour? Did you get the Alacantara GTS interior in Carmine Red also?

Yes its Carmine Red. I went with leather interior as I am not a big fan of Alcantara.

TdotPerformance often has good prices in C$ and shipping is free in Canada. Not always in stock but they can get things if you don't need next day delivery!

One nice thing about ordering through pfaff, is a possible return if needed. Maybe warranty the part?
All I require is fair pricing.
I don't mind them getting a little chubby off my business, just take offence to them getting FAT.

ie. recent Golf hat purchase - Amazon.ca $172cdn vs Amazon.com $45usd? Had it shipped to my mum in fla.

I have to disagree with you! Their prices are insanely inflated from what I've seen so far.

Hmm, maybe it depends on the part? I buy often from the US, but sometimes by the time I calculate shipping, duty,and brokerage fees, it ends up being better.

+993 on Sonnen, though they only seem to ship Fedex to me for whatever reason. No matter, Fedex International Priority is fast and waives broker fees.

I used to buy from Sunset but they only ship UPS and I got sick of getting screwed on broker fees.

Pelican often has better pricing on stuff like gaskets and certain oem parts; they will ship USPS but that's not necessarily cheap either.

I also used to use a package forwarding service (shipito.com) but the started nickling and diming on fees and their forwarding shipping costs hiked way up, so savings are now marginal. But if you live near the border, a US based mailbox receiving service might be the way to go.

I don't think it's kosher here to say what I do, but you can always ask via PM

Little something I'm working on, 996 3.4 to 3.8 LN upgrade.

If you use a cross border shipping place https://www.fcpeuro.com/ is solid to deal with. Now they may be a bit more expensive here and there, but they clearly mark the product OE, OEM, or aftermarket so you know what you are getting. But the big plus is LIFETIME REPLACEMENT warranty! What!?!?! Yeup... it's true.

They may go out of business before you need new rotors again, but cheese and rice bruce that's a premium I am willing to pay for...

I like RockAuto and AZAutoHaus for comparison shopping. They also put the total CDN cost on the invoice. With these two you need to know the part you are buying as sometimes they have ****ty aftermarket parts, but you can find great deals if you subscribe and pay attention.

For example, just this week I received their last 4 NOS Brembo 944 Turbo brake caliper pistons for $5 each! These are easily $80 each or unobtainable elsewhere....
