Ya know... since the Credit Cards were charge, it would be cool to receive an email indicating when our units are planned for shipping (heck, a tracking number too would be cool).
Of course, if they are just boxing and shipping like mad, that would just take additional time.... wouldn't want that :-)

I absolutely love being able to track packages online!! Here's my info:
I ordered my stage-1 kit on 12/18 and got a shipment notice from Maurice on 1/11, and a shipment notice from FedEx on 1/15 with an initial expected delivery date of 1/29. The package went from Edmonton to Winnipeg then crossed the border and went to St. Paul. It just left Columbus this morning and now my new expected delivery date has been moved up to 1/27!!
Maurice said that the shipping would be $25 so the extra $28 that was charged to my credit card must be taxes / border fees of some kind.

Did anyone else get a phone call from FedEx Trade Network concerning brokerage and duty fees? Brokerage fee was $16 and they didn't know what the duty fee would be.
I had to fax them a letter saying that I'd pay the fees before they would let the package out of customs.

Scotchee,
Yes, I did give my SSN to CanZoomer when I faxed in my order.
I'd be curious to hear from other people who have received their units and find out what they had to pay for shipping, brokerage fees, and duty tax.
Speed Racer $55 + $16 brokerage fee + duty tax $???
Scotchee $53
vix8 $56

Not yet. Mine is supposed to arrive next Tuesday. I'll let you know what the invoice says when it comes. So far it sounds like there's been at least some variation in taxes and fees. My card was charged 553 and since CanZoomer mentioned that the shipping charges would be $25 I assume there were additional fees of $28. But the actual amount of shipping may have been different so my assumptions about the fees could be wrong too. I'll let you know once it comes.
