That is true.
CIP and AVR are local business people and not only their employes are local people but thay also tale a risk that others are not willing to. They are involved in the local scene and support our activities.

Besides you will find that there are a whole series of variables ($$$) involved with purchasing from outsiders.

Thanks guys I didn't know AVR would carry stuff for it so that was a good link

For those who have done this before is it worth while to get stuff shipped from the states or pay more upfront for stuff already in Canada?

With the dollar the way it is now, its probably a good time to go shopping in the states. What it is that you need? I have some leftover parts as well.

but make sure you don't ship UPS or FedEx when buying stuff from the states.

the 'brokerage' fees are ridiculous.
