    Kifaru

    Thinking about ordering a kifaru Pack. anyone know how the tax thing works? in my shopping cart it doesn't add any tax to it? obviously this is because of where they are made, but somewhere along the line I imagine Ill have to pay some tax...anyone know how that works?

    also who runs a kifaru pack? lots of good reviews online.

    You will get hit by tax and duties at the border, Canada Post collects if unless you go across the line to pick it up. In that case you would pay at the border.

    Not sure with kifaru, but when I purchased my Barneys it was shocking by the time it got to my house after our Canadian dollar, tax and duties, but after all am super impressed with the barneys Yukon pack and freighter frame. I know Clay Langcaster was talking about getting kifaru packs in Canada and was bugging Backcountry in FSJ to start carrying them but yet to see anything because they cannot sell them and make any money by the time they get them.

    when I ordered my pack 4-5 years ago, I never payed a duty, because everything was manufactured in the states I was told. There was a tax on it tho, I don't recall the amount.

    US made products are duty free in most cases, but it's the brokerage fees and taxes that USPS OR UPS whollop a guy with so beware as in some cases you will pay double the price of your product when being shipped from the US to Canada, I've read many horror stories on HBC with this going on.
    Its better to get a Package Express box in Sumas and deal with the taxes and duty if applicable yourself.

    Bad news - you will get nailed at th border
    Good news - if you speak with someone at kifaru they will likely give you a discount to negate the charges. Amazing customer service.
