Just curious, how much cheaper would a group buy be? Maybe 10% cheaper??

The lights are pretty cheap as is considering they even give free shipping in the price. I think HST and duty ( 4%??) is standard.

depends on how many and how sales are lately.

I've seen IT2040 for $240 instead of $319.

Of course, it's entirely possible they say $309 too, rendering it useless!

Just bought two sets of d120 from evergrow and have to say that I am pleased with the quality... Happy I didn't pay 4x the price for quote unquote better known products!

I'd be interested in a group buy if the price was right

alright, sounds good. I am well aware of reefbreeders and reefsupplycanada selling these, but hey is there's a way to save some $$ to spend on something else why not. I'll check around and get back to here, there does seem to be some interest.

Depend on how much they claim the unit to be, bringing LED fixture into Canada should be duty+tax(hst for you)
and with my exp Duty is range from 25% to 40%. for LED fixtures, however, most of these company would claim the unit only worth $10 lol. . The risk is that if you are getting more than 5 units, the CBSA can question your purpose of bringing in these unit and they would think you are using them as commercial purpose.
