Any others from Canada get billed shipping? The understanding was prices included shipping throughout US & Canada ... Want to here from others ...Just spoke with Laurie ... she said that there must be a 'disconnect' with UPS on that order as shipping to Canada IS included in the $40/$80 prices as previously stated by me during the event. If ANYONE gets a shipping bill, PLEASE call Laurie at Whalberg at 219-374-5454 or their #800 number listed on their website -- she was VERY apologetic on the phone. Hope this helps.

Bill, you get screwed so often it makes the rest of us feel blessed! We ordered the framed pic and I was amazed at the beautiful starburst effect in the picture, until I realized the glass was broken.Quick call to Walberg and they were more than helpful, course I'm not Canadian so they took my call!

Billy, the $45 UPS was probably their handling fee plus taxes on importing. What a deal!!!

I hear ya Bill... they soaked me on several occasions....they call it "brokerage"... i had $28 worth of oil filters shipped up and had to Visa $45 when it got here..... Compared to Global Express ( US mail)....that costs nothing except the original Postage.... UPS bites !!! if they won't mail it, just say "NO"......

Bill I think you meant BUY for now! You are still a few "bumps" ahead of me from the go karts at Woodward. Good thing you didn't get the one I got. You would have had to send it back and have them ship another, you would have had $600. American, $850 Canadian into it in no time. But it is a real nice pic.

Jim - Always testing my endurance,,,getting ready for those 500 milers [aka, 3 hour+ sessions]. Normally, I practice daily with 300 milers. Why do I bother to explain,,,,,these guys who work at Jiffy Lube/Quick Lube,,,wouldn't understand The real truth is: XL Bill was in the room next to me at the Dells event. I told him I didn't want to hear the headboard banging against the common wall all night. It didn't!!!! Those Canucks aren't as good as they claim to be, lol.

Maybe the Canucks are smarter than those AZ members??? Maybe they are smart enough to move the headboards out away from the wall a foot or two????

Or. It might be that they don't need to brag about their abilities? How about that Canucks? Someone needs to stand up for those great Canadians!!! LOL
