Hey, i will formally ask this question in a new thread as it is a little off topic of a previous thread i made that was about the 396
Anyways, i am in the market now for buying a new BCD396T, mainly because the dollar is damn strong lately (its currently 1.0985). So anyways, i am thinking of ordering one from scannerworld.com (out of state of NY). They have given me a quote of 549.99 (includes S&H) on a new BCD396T. I worked this out at an exchange rate of 1.10 and it works out to about $605 CDN. This is obviously much cheaper then the $799 before tax ($918.85 after tax) i would be paying here if i were to buy it at the cheapest place i found which was Durham Radio. My question is for you guys who have had experience ordering from the states (i have not had any) is around how much should i expect to pay in Border Fees. I looked around and found some pricing on the UPS site but it was kinda vague so if you guys could let me know what extra fees i can see happening by ordering through the states that would be great, thanks
