Thinking of getting the ultra 6000 , but was wondering how much it cost to get it across the boarder.

on my 2 kuiu orders and boots from a different company south of the border, expect to add an extra 35%

$350USD x 1.3 exchange rate, $455cdn. Add 20% duty from US Customs for chinese made product $546. Most likely get dinged for gst/pst by Canadian Customs $611. Add in shipping and some handling fees and it'd probably be around $650cdn

That will be the lightest pack you will ever own but probably the most costly lol.

X a million! You'll be spending about the same money for a Kifaru or stone glacier once it's to your door so you might as well do it right.

My recent order cost me 45% over the checkout price on kuiu webpage. I have an icon pro 5200 on backorder. I will expect the $425 price to be about $625ish in my hands.
ultra 6000 isnt worth $625 in my opinion

Wait until later in the year. Kuiu is apparently working on bringing a Canadian distribution centre into BC so we can get CAD pricing and avoid duties.

Backpacks have a 10% duty rate when made overseas (other than a free trade country).
You can count on 10% duty, GST/PST, exchange, and a handling fee.

Its always the damned brokerage fees that kill me! The shipping fee should include getting stuff across the border. Get them to send it USPS or to a US address just across the border. I live on the Island and often get stuff shipped to the Victoria Clipper in Washington State... for $25 they bring fairly large packages over and you can act as your own broker by taking the paperwork over to Customs yourself! Saves a ton of money on expensive orders!
I wouldn't buy another KUIU pack... not real happy with mine.

My ultra 6000 (bag only) just arrived. Along with a belt pouch, the value in Canadian dollars was $160. Duty was 14.14. Gst was was 8.77. PST was 12.27. Handling costs 9.95. Total extra costs $45.13. Half that would be charged in canada anyway.
My Stone Glacier archer 6300 (bag only) rifle sling, swing out pockets and hip belt pockets $360 USD showed up yesterday at the door.....no duty, no tax no extra fees, oh yeah its made in the US, not in vietnam

All depends for shipping. I order both from Sitka and kuiu and sometimes I get charged and sometimes I dont. Put a $500 order in didn't get charged tax on it. Order another pair of $50 gloves and got charged 35% extra.

The 3 piece krux frame, which i already have from when i bought the solo pack/frame.
