anybody tried opening up a P.O.Box across the border it maybe possible?
or maybe try this place called GermanParts.Ca in Toronto... haven't tried them yet, but have spoken to them for some parts for Benz before, they seem to be knowledgeable and helpful?
good luck !
I've shipped parts to a PO box just across the border in Buffalo (I live in Toronto so the drive isn't bad) and they charge $5 per item. I got to know the people there so they let me pickup all of my items for the flat $5 rate. Then I cross over the border and declare nothing (I understand this is illegal) and get home without having to pay shipping (as long as you purchase from websites that offer free shipping within the US) or tax.
