Guys from Canada: where do you buy parts?

[igorkv]

Hi guys,

So where do you buy parts for your cars - LHS, online ?
Is it worth to buy online from eBay stores located in US? Is there a duty you have to pay when you order from US?
ebay stores like RCBoyz seems cheaper.
The only one canadian online I know is http://www.greathobbies.com
Any experience buying online?

Thanks in advance,
Igor

there are a bunch of ebayers that sell from canada. I'm not sure the names off the top of my head, but my father ordered something from one guy the other day. I work for US Customs, and I know that unless you are ordering a whole car/truck, kit, or engine then the customs fees will be very minimal and in most cases non existant.

Thanks. Can you find the name of the guy who sells from Canada?

Actually I am in Toronto, Canada. So I don't know how it works from US to Canada.
