Thought wow looks like a pretty good deal and was all set to hit buy it now.................
And than Check out his shipping price to Canada

Guess that is the easy way not to have to ship up here....LOL
Come on us Canadians are good people........And I will use the US dollar to pay.......LOL

Did you contact him to verify that the shipping price wasn't a mistake? Looks like a screw-up he made listing it to me.........

Hey Flames

Yup sent an email to him, and still waiting for a reply nothin yet,....

I am hoping it is just a typo......

You understand that cab was broken and they patched it up? Also it is the early narrow style so KT66 tubes don't fit without shimming the back panel. Personally I think that's too much for patched up cab.

I can't say I blame him about the Canadian shipping charge at least he is offering it. Almost every time I ship to Canada I run into trouble. The only way to do it and not run into trouble is ship FedEx over night which might explain the shipping charge.

I understand people having trouble shipping to Canada,but $300 is out ragious.....IMHO.......
I buy quite a bit of gear out of the US and have NEVER seen shipping charges that high......
A Mojo 4X12 cabinet from Carolina was just under $100 took 5 days to get.....
A Mojo large head box......$45 to ship......Again 5 Days to my door
Numerious orders from George all reasionable and real shipping prices and everything arrives in good shape.......A credit to his packing
Guys Canada is not half a world away and if the proper precautions are taken shipping goes without a hitch......At least in my experiences....
The only hard pill to swallow is the import duties and brokerage fees the government applies to us.......Not the shipper
I have had some boxes arrive that looked like they were dragged behind the ups truck but luckally the stuff inside was ok

908ssp sorry to hear about your troubles shipping to Canada and ya i knew about the thin cab thing....Wanted it for a 18watt clone im building so no tube clearance problems there
