Damn thats a great deal, no mention of lights, wonder how much room there is to add lights to it. An Alberta deal was mentioned, I might be interested if something like that happens.

How much is shipping and duty? If price is around $175 final ( before HST); I might be interested....
Betcha you can order 8 and sell the rest on craigslist or something.
I assume no lights? - see http://reefbuilders.com/2011/10/10/c...n-led-padlite/

I think you will be on the hook for both taxes and possibly duty if it was made outside the US.

My understanding is that anything above $75 (your daily limit to bring back) is taxable. Also on things that are made outside the US, you are responsible to pay Duty as well.

Just my 2 cents.

If that's the case let me know how much the total is going to be and then I will decide.

I heard the limit is 500$, I bought a light fixture for $160, and I showed the receipt to the border officer and he said OK.I did not pay a cent tax or duty.

if we ask them to send us separate bills ,it should be OK.

Does this price include shipping? If so all drop shipped tone location? or can each unit be shipped to our home address? What about brokerage and duty?

I'm very interested but need to know some facts
