[QUOTE="52merc, post: 15967052, member: 197"] That is easily said, but I live in Canada. Every individual order must be customs cleared and taxes paid. For example, my FTBR bushing kit cost me USD 80.00 for shipping plus CAD 131.00 [USD 98.00] for clearance and taxes. To try and control costs I have to make the orders a reasonable size so I only get dinged once for customs clearance. Summit includes the customs clearance in their shipping, so there are no additional surprises. You should understand that being in Spain (I believe from your location). Nobody provides free shipping to Canada, regardless of how much you spend. The Summit price was the best when I ordered, take my word for it. I checked about 10 or more different websites, including Bilstein and Gobal West. Bilstein Canada was over CAD 500 each for the struts and GW was more for the bushings plus shipping and clearance. I've not tried Jegs yet for shipping to Canada, and I might just have to try them. Bilstein delivery has been a real issue forever and even worse lately (I believe due to a plant relocation). Everything else is ready to ship, but Summit only ships complete orders across borders to control customs clearance costs to the customer. I can't afford to have 4 or 5 partial shipments sent with each one costing 100 bucks for clearance. Sorry about the rant. [/QUOTE]
