tactical bass Posted February 13, 2006 Report Share Posted February 13, 2006 Hi all, I'm pretty sure I've read a post about it before, but is plastisol available anywhere in Canada? Are all you fellow Canucks buying from Del or Lurecraft? What's shipping like on say a gallon/5 gallons? Seems everytime I order tackle from the states it's shipped UPS or Fedex and I pay brokerage fees thru the t*ts and turns out cheaper just to buy in Canada in the end. Sorry for all the questions, I'm a newbie here. TB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nova Posted February 13, 2006 Report Share Posted February 13, 2006 Plastisol; as far as I know; is not available in Canada. When I was buying it in 5 gal containers I requested it be shipped buy mail. It's a little slower but you won't pay all those brokerage charges. All you will pay is the $5 customs fee at the post office. I use the same setup when I order the other supplies as well. PM me if you want any more advice.

wannabefishing Posted February 13, 2006 Report Share Posted February 13, 2006 well, i at one point had a link to a supplier in Hamilton, Ont... however, it was $100 a gallon (yeah, i said gallon, it's not a typo). So even with UPS charges, it's cheaper, tho living on the borded i just bring my stuff back myself (i really oughta buy and resell the plastic and stuff lol). I know taht if you ship via USPS there's no fee in most cases, i say most cases but i haven't heard of anyone being charged more then $5. brokerage but you do have to pay GST and Duty.... not sure you can ship a 5gal pail of plastic through usps tho...

Delw Posted February 13, 2006 Report Share Posted February 13, 2006 Usps, Sometime it takes up to 3 months to show up, then if it doesnt show up you have to wait 30-90 days Thats right no days to get a refund on the lost items. So you have 2 people that get burned, The seller and the buyer. The seller sits waiting hopeing the post office will refund the money, and the buyer is chewing the seller out waiting for his shipment. Fedex: great for the buyer but a ripp off for the seller, Fed ex will ship the product pretty fast if the buyer doesnt pay tax's duties or what have you 6 months later it gets charged to the seller comes right off his account and you cant fight it, so you hope the buyer will reimburse you. UPS the only way to go both for buyer and seller. it shows up fast has real tracking. Plus they wont hand it over unless the buyer pays full fees. This is one reason why we went to UPS cause I got tired of loosing quite a bit of money to canada, I wont sell any plastic to canada unless it goes UPS.

Tubeman Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 We will soon be selling plastisol in Canada from Canada. I'm thinking within the next month or so. Just need to get our containers and will start shipping. Pricing will be comparable and fair to any US resellers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tactical bass Posted March 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 Hi Mike, I'll be putting my order in this weekend. Your prices are certainly fair compared to what we'd have to contend with with shipping and brokerage fees. Check your PMs later today. I'd like to pay via paypal but need the addy to send it to.

Tubeman Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 We are no longer re selling plastisol in Canada. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little man baits Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 Yes I have purchased a gallon from them. It's pretty good. They only have one style of alumisol. Not like the other guys. Soft,med,hard,.....so my guess is that softener would have to be added they sell softener and Hardener . And they also have some colorants that I have yet to try yet 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
