Default Hardtop Guy = Great Guy, Prices,Service

I had a great conversation with Jeff (a.k.a - Hardtop Guy) today. I ordered various items from him. It makes you sick to see how badly we get gouged here when you can buy product from Jeff, do the currency exchange, pay for shipping and still undercut the dealers here by a large margin. I have no need to buy parts locally. Thanks Jeff !!

This is what I've been preaching all along. Honda Canada really needs to get a clue.

He no longer uses UPS. He ships Fed Ex or Post freight. I asked him this same question.

Another for Jeff & Ganley Pontiac/Honda.

Ordered some PCX oil filters and some wiper blades from them a little while ago. Really quick shipping, and even after paying duty I netted the filters out to about $9 Canadian each. Local Honda dealer wanted $40 PER FILTER

To be fair T&T is pretty good on them, about $17 or so.

This site has wheels for relatively cheap, compared to your quoted price...

That would wash out to about what Honda Red Deer is charging for the rear wheel.

A safe bet when ordering an item such as a wheel from the US is to take the American price and almost double it, by the time you add shipping, conversion rate, duties/broker fees.
