Buying skates online in Canada and shipping to US?

Recommended Posts

I'm looking to buy skates from a Canadian retailer, but they won't ship to the US due to Bauer delivery restrictions.

Has anyone ever purchased skates online from a Canadian seller and then figured out a cheap way to get it to their US address?

The seller will ship for free to the Canadian address and I'm more than happy to pay for the shipping to the US (it's probably going to cost around $40-50 from Montreal to my address in the US).

Heck, I'd even pay a MSH member to receive the package and drop off the skates at their local Canada Post office!

If they wont ship direct or you can't find a MSH member to help, use a virtual address from someone like reship.com or shop&ship (I know the courier company behind this company). Google "shop in canada ship to US", check the shipping cost for each one, google for reviews then sign up and use it.

Thank you for the suggestion Vet! I went ahead and found a virtual mailbox in Montreal through Anytime Mailbox (CAD$20 with a small $2/package forwarding fee) who will forward the package to the US. The store I'm buying from is in BC so the Montreal address allowed the sales tax to be cut in half.
