Honda accessory prices Canada vs USA

Checking my dealer site and door sills are $231 and AT shifter is $108 plus about 15% taxes. I bought from DCL in CA for $96 and $50 +$12 shipping to a USA address. I can't use UPS across border as they charge ridiculous import fees. So I had it shipped to a friend who them mailed it to me for another $22.

Result in Canada $339 vs $198 Cdn from USA including exchange and no taxes.

I am off to my local dealer for my winter Steelies today. Only $62 each Yes, it is pricey but beats screwing around trying to find something that may or may not Fit. I will get my tires elsewhere.

So what is DCL and how do we do this? Do they beat bernardi, college hills, etc. as far as pricing on most items go?

Also, are you saying you had to have it shipped to a friend in Canada who then shipped it to you in the US?

Oops I meant www.DCHAutomotiveParts.com

Pricing similar to College etc.

I am in Canada so to avoid having to get a new one ripped by UPS when they bring stuff across the border I had DCH ship to a friend in the USA. Friend then use USPS to mail to me.

Ah, so what you're saying is that in order to get cheaper prices in Canada, you bought from the USA, and had a friend ship it to you. For a bit there I was thinking the reverse (I hadn't bothered to notice your location data.)
