hockeyismylife 0 Report post Posted December 28, 2006 I was thinking about getting a few pro stock OPS's off of hockey monkey and I was wondering if anyone would know how much the shipping (plus any other associated charges) would be to Calgary?Also, does anyone know where i can find pics of the pro stock curves? I look at the descriptions on the hockey monkey website but they don't really help that much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hockeymom 2 Report post Posted December 28, 2006 Mack is right, it is an insane amount of money. Not so much for the shipping... but the duty is a killer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mack 44 Report post Posted December 28, 2006 It'll be both. I'm technically part of the United States and it's about $50 right off the bat for me before they add on their oversize charges. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TBLfan 25 Report post Posted December 28, 2006 wow, I didn't get charged for oversized shipping on my flyweights. But then again I was bitching at them pretty good so I doubt they'd want to fan the fire :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The total cost would be around $200?The patterns that I would be looking at are:WarriorHelminenPittisSaprykinTambelliniEastonMaddenMorinSykoraAldrichBerglundBicekBlake Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mack 44 Report post Posted December 28, 2006 That sounds about right unless they do ground shipping there. Not familiar with their duty charges but if I simply wanted a hat I get tagged with roughly $50 right off the bat for it in shipping. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hockeyismylife 0 Report post Posted December 28, 2006 When I went to the checkout, I put in all of my correct information and chose UPS Standard Canada (Ground). The final cost was $159.96 for a $120 OPS. Would it be accurate to expect $40 in duty charges? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sniper_23 0 Report post Posted December 28, 2006 UPS will charge you a ridiculous brokerage fee and then tax ontop of that. I'm not sure how much total it would be but around 30-40$ in fee's sounds about right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Here are their fees for brokerage.http://www.ups.com/content/ca/en/shipping/..._clearance.htmlExpect $29 + $4.25 brokerage, then GST + PST on the $120.

hockeyismylife 0 Report post Posted December 28, 2006 So, I guess I would expect to pay about $200. Thanks for all the help everyone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

G60 0 Report post Posted December 28, 2006 for the curves, it takes some time and effort, but you can input the description into the pattern DB here and it will show you similar curves from each manufacturer, then you can look for images of those curves.takes a few minutes but i had to do that the other day for my brother when he was picking out a pro stock curve.

mack 44 Report post Posted December 28, 2006 They can ship ground but a lot of places won't do it. There's not a noticeable difference in price especially when you consider the difference in time for its arrival. That's why I limit any hockey orders to places that will ship USPS since they could care less that we're out in BFE. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mack 44 Report post Posted December 28, 2006 Damn, I'll just have to foot the regular charges then. The only "decent" price to get stuff up here is if you call it media, but then it takes 2-3 months and comes on a goddamn boat. The way I usually get around stuff is to just have it shipped to the outlaws in North Carolina then have them ship it here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mack 44 Report post Posted December 29, 2006 For gits and shiggles I checked out a couple Dolomite OPS and it rings up at $87 for two. I think Pure Hockey used the same company/rate and it was about $30 for 5 SLs. Hockey Monkey just flat out sucks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
