Yes, We Ship to Canada

Yes, we ship to Canada; and we ship our full product line, to include aftershave products containing alcohol and colognes. The shipping program has been published in this forum before but questions continue to arise, so here it is one more time.

Vintage Blades is now established as a "Non-Resident Importer” to Canada. By means of holding a Canadian Business Number, we are both the Exporter and the Importer of Record. Since we are the Importer of Record for our shipments, this now allows for the Customs duty to be paid upon their entry into Canada based on our cost of goods and not on the price you pay.

Under this program, you will be charged a minimal brokerage fee. The other fees that you usually see from UPS are not charged on these shipments. Of course the Goods and Services Tax (GST) will be charged, but there is no PST under this arrangement.

You pay everything upfront, or as they say, you pay “Landed Cost”. You will know the total cost of your order before it leaves the US. You are invoiced for a “Total Shipping Cost” based on the total value of the items that you ordered. This “Total Shipping Cost” includes all the above – “shipping” cost, brokerage fee, customs duty, and GST. Your order is delivered to your door and you owe nothing else.

We will consolidate orders and ship once a week. This will be done on Thursday. The UPS “hub” in Canada is in Fort Erie which takes two days from Maryland. From there it will go by UPS Ground to your Province.

As an additional incentive, we are offering FREE SHIPPING on any order over $100.00 to Canada through December 20st which is reflected in the rate schedule below.

Consider this a "my order just arrived" bump.

Or more exactly, a "my very well packaged order and including some great samples just arrived without a problem" bump.

Sure, everyone should check him out but ... hey Canucks, this is a great system he has of shipping everthing ...

... colognes ...

... aftershave ...

... everything across the border hastle-free. So many otherwise-fine American businesses won't ship to Canada (due to the border/shipping issues, and I can't really fault them) but Jim has gone out and found a way to make this happen smoothly. This, we should encourage.
