I have ordered a couple times from pro bike kit (tires, bottle cages etc.) and have been happy with the whole buying experience from them with their free shipping and no customs fees. I was now thinking of ordering some new shoes and was wondering if I should expect to pay customs/duty fees on items that are not classified as "parts".

Thanks,

Nate

Nate,

I ordered shoes from them and they were labled "cycling accessories" on the shipping label. No customs charges were applied.

To the best of my knowledge, orders under $200 are duty free to the US (under section 321?).

If you are in Canada,expect to pay Duty and Tax.

Good to know. Looks like I'm getting some new shoes!

Anyone order wheel set from them? Do you paid custom for your order.

I ordered shoes and pedals (totaling $350) and I was not charged duty. Could have just been lucky though.

Got a set of Mavic Ksyrium ES wheels from them. No duty.

:cool:

Any Canadians report how much duty they were charged?

anything over 20 dollars, 14% + 5 dollars handling

i placed a $240 order recently and i got my blue bag! and nothing else, as in a duty charge.

PROBIKTKIT goes the Heck Off!!!!

that's PROBIKEKIT!!!

I purchased a pair of shoes on Ebay from the US and had them shipped to Canada. Value was written at what I paid which was $75. customs/duties/taxes brought my delivery bill to 40 dollars. Still a good deal overall on the shoes which have a msrp of around $250 or so. Just be careful and expect to get a bill when they are delivered. Canada Post seems to be the best for that kind of thing, with UPS being the worst.
