I'm thinking I might give them a try. Looked at the site and I see i can pick up three of the items I'm looking for, for less than the cost of the most expensive one if I buy up here. (I'm in no hurry) Mind you, if looking for a mc jacket or what there is an ebay store based out of Calgary that has good prices however they refuse to exchange if the item won't fit. That being the case, I won't buy and risk getting an item I can't use. There's always something it seems. :lol:

From my experience you will get your order, but like I said, it will take some time. Yes you will save money but there are other sites you can order from. Check it out.
http://www.leatherup.com/index.asp Getting my boots from them.
http://www.bikebandit.com/ All you need to fix and ride
http://www.sportsmansguide.com All kinds of gear.
These 3 site are good at getting your order to you in a timely fashion. 1 to 2 weeks, normaly within a week.
Order from Jafrum if you don't mind wating.
http://www.jafrum.com 4-5 weeks to get to Canada. To long for me. But it's good stuff, I like it.

Just to add to Beer Runner's recommended list - newenough.com - as I posted earlier, I ended up not keeping the jacket because I didn't like the collar on it, but it was super-high quality, they got it to me within 5 days and they accepted my return with no questions.

The whole Canadian border customs delay thing is weird to me. I'm in construction in Seattle and I consistently buy stuff from BC (mostly lumber, lighting fixtures, Fireplace inserts, etc.) and it's just like buying stuff from the US as far as shipping time is concerned. I've bought BC products for ten years and never once had a customs or border delay. Maybe the delay is just in the other direction.
