So I ordered a set of Chrome Glow signals and a flasher relay 2 days ago. Through the check out process I had to pay $39 for shipping to Canada. For the same order shipped in the US its $8.99

Anyway, I sucked it up and ordered the lights. Today I get an email from Chromeglow saying they want an additional $31.56 for additional shipping charges. Over $70 to ship two LED strips and a flasher relay!! I mean I know us Canadians have to pay more for shipping but this is outrageous.

I guess I'll be putting the stock signals back on :tsk:

Give me the cash. I'll order and ship to you via usps flat rated box as gift. Done and done.

I'm in Canada too and $70 shipping is ridiculous. I order different fork lights (Joker Machine) and my shipping was $15.

Thanks for the offer, if I got that route I'll let you know but right now I'd rather not give them a dime

Cool. I googled them and found them straight off of Jokers site. They're a definite possibility. Nice that they are metal instead of attached with zip ties

Ya I had to drop my forks outta the top of the triple tree about 1.5 inches (pretty easy to do) to get them on

Seems about right...Are you paying with U.S. Dollars?

About right? i hope your joking. I've had a full exhaust system shipped for only about double that shipping cost.

On a side not, did you get the PM I sent you about the part numbers for the risers and bars you are running?

I may have to hit you up for some instructions, I just ordered them from CC

 

[Chop Chop]

It's pretty simple. I put the bike on jack so i could raise the front end. With it level I loosened the four pinch bolts raised a little and slid the forks down just enough to get the lights on. Lowered the bike slowly working the forks back up. Made sure they were even and re-tightened the bolts

 

[Chop Chop]

Oh ya thats 4 pinch bolts on each fork

 

[Raven]

Cool sounds pretty easy. thanks

Yeah I know, tried to order last year ... Ridiculous shipping price. They even were quite rude while trying to negociate that shipping price. I have boycotted them from my shops ... Few of my friends also. If they do not want canadian business they can say so. I am buying all my mods from the US ... Never had an issue ...But it seems that working with leds affect the business sense related brains cells.

They do not realize how many sales they are losing.

Yeah I found that they're email replies were less than polite as well. I can't believe that they wanted $70 to ship two LED strips and a relay. I went to CC ordered a bunch of stuff and got it all shipped for a **** of a lot less.

Seems some companies do not want to deal with shipping to Canada so they jack up shipping to us. Same as you, I buy a lot of stuff online from the US and 90% of the time it is hassle free. Either straight up say you don't ship to Canada or give us some shipping rates that are reasonable and not as much as the item we're buying. $70 to ship a 1lb parcel. What a joke.

 

[Chop Chop]

I agree Raven most of the time there's great service from the US and when I don't get it it always surprises me.

 

[redlightrico]

I can't believe they did that. I ordered the fork wrap L.E.D's from CG and they only charged me 31.00 for shipping.
Not trying to rub it in or nuthin but that's insane!!

Shipping to Canada is insanely expensive an not the fault of chrome glow. I had to swap out some helmet pads for a different size from a Canadian seller.. I went to return the wrong size back to the seller in Canada and the cost to ship back was like $36 but it only cost the seller $6 to send it to me. I gave up. The return value was only $49. I would have had $13 left after the return less the shipping cost so I just kept them figured I would ebay them instead. Not sure why the shipping costs are so different depending on which shipping direction.

In this case it is Chrome Glow's fault. 2 months ago I was charged half of what he is. We're in the same province, they're screwing him
