Just a FYI in case someone from the US is thinking of striking it rich
buying these sets and reselling them for $1.50US.

The $1.49 + tax (in BC) is $1.70Cdn.
$1.50US = $2.25Cdn
Profit = 0.55 Cdn

The four Canadian Tires I visited, only one had them in quantity, about 10
of each, (gone now).  The others had 0.  As well, it would also cost
considerbaly more to mail 20+ sets than $1.50.

(...) Dont forget that USAians can get GST (but not PST) back. Costs a stamp. (...) OK, I'll pay for shipping. But I don't care if these are squished down, I just want them for parts. And .55 on 1.70 is not a bad profit margin. In absolute terms (...) (25 years ago, 2-Dec-99, to lugnet.loc.ca, lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) Like Larry, I could use a bunch of these: 10 of 2872 and 10 of 2885, and I'd pay the $1.50 + shipping too. If anyone is willing....thanks! Paul Sinasohn bearitone@my-deja.com (25 years ago, 2-Dec-99, to lugnet.loc.ca, lugnet.market.shopping)
