  Doh! Canada is expensive...
 
I finally got around to sending in my LUGNET membership fee today. I got a US$10 money order and a US stamp - my cost in CAD dollars? $19.49! Ouch! (24 years ago, 1-Feb-01, to lugnet.loc.ca)

(...) And they evidently collect on non-postal imports as well..., I drove that large order in personally. (...) Well given that a BrickBay package that just arrived from Italy was also taxed, I guess I won't be seeing anything come back. Since (...) (24 years ago, 1-Feb-01, to lugnet.loc.ca)
 
  Re: DUTY? (was Re: Canadian Online Toy Purchases....)
 
(...) Kyle, I don't think you will have much luck getting your PST back. CCRA (was Revenue Canada) and the province of Ontario have a service level agreement to collect PST at the border. I just double checked the Customs site and CCRA also has (...) (24 years ago, 30-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.ca)
 
  Re: DUTY? (was Re: Canadian Online Toy Purchases....)
 
Following up my own message here. I had posted in the previous message that in Ontario you should only have to pay GST on imported LEGO from the USA. This was based on information given to me directly by Customs by telephone. As it turns out this (...) (24 years ago, 29-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.ca)

  Weather (was )Re: ANDRASTAVIA
 
(...) Eastern Canada has in fact been cold and snowy (I'm in Southern NB), but we still aren't hitting -30C or -40C. Well, often in central and northern parts with overnight windchill it may come close but where I am in Saint John it's relatively (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.ca)

  Re: Price Screw-up at Sears
 
I would have thought someone at Sears would have figured it out by now, but I was in one today, and bought one of these sets for $9.99 minus the 20% sale. The total was about $8.50. How could I resist such a deal! Even the lady at the cash register (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.ca)
 
  SuperCar in Ottawa?
 
Anyone know where I can find 8448 - the red SuperCar in the Ottawa region? I'm looking for the 16-tooth gear that rotates freely around the axle and I heard it comes in that set? Thanks, Kevin (24 years ago, 24-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.ca.on.ott)
 
  Playvalue has cheap technic and DDK sets
 
For $40 (marked down from $90) you can get the 3038 CyberSlam set at PlayValue. It comes with quite a few beams, shocks, and a motor - it's cheaper than the motor set by itself. They also have quite a lot of the Droid Developer Kits for $50. Cheers, (...) (24 years ago, 24-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.ca.on.ott)
