Total Chaos UCA cost in Canada, I'm being gouged!

I just got off the phone with a local 4x4 outfit here in Victoria, BC. Westshore 4x4. I wanted a quote from the guy on some TC UCA's and he quoted me $798.00 and that's with having my coilovers put together there too. This seems outrageous to me. Anybody else in canada tired of everything being 2/3 higher in price then the states? Why would there be such a price jump? I thought you could get them from wheelers for under 500 before tax? I know this is probably covered somewhere but I was hoping OZ could chime in or other fellow Canadians.

 

Hi,
Call 4 wheel parts in Edmonton,
I just saw a pair hanging on their wall.
They are fair and deal mainly with yotas

Cheers

 

Get a quote from the US shipped via Seawings Express to the Victoria ( Sydney ) airport

I've used them multiple times , they are awesome

 

Right on! Thanks! That's genius!

 

It's awesome , the US vendor ships to Seawings office in Blaine , they import it for you and transport it to their office at the airport , when you go to pick up your item they give you the import paperwork and you walk over to the Canada Customs office and pay your GST

The Seawings charge for their service is very reasonable and if you give them the weight of the item they can give you an estimate

 

Thanks OZ

 

I got mine to my door for about $740, so $798 isn't unreasonable. They're $649US from Wheelers.
