Canadian Members: Shipping Help?

Greetings friends from Up North!

Have located some much needed obsolete tool repairs parts in Vancouver BC but they cannot sell/ship to the USA. Naturally they ship anywhere within all of Canada.

I could use some help having someone in Canada buy, receive and then ship to me here in the USA, all costs naturally borne by me in advance. We're talking less than $150 USD for the needed parts and their flat rate shipping charges to Canada.

If anyone can help please post here or PM me---you cannot imagine the help this would be.

TIA

JWA

I'm in Vancouver BC and can help as well if needed. It's easy enough for me to bring them along next time I cross the border which happens fairly often. I'm also driving to San Francisco next month although that's not Ohio, lol.


Cheers
David

I'm also in Vancouver, send me a pm if you need help. Depending where they are I can pick them up and ship them to you. Alternatively there is a high probability that I will be crossing the boarder in the next 2 weeks so I can ship them state side (I'm sure it will be cheaper than from Canada)

Off topic, but any chance you want to meet up so I can check out your rig?

Yes in fact that's in-process now.

Further explaining my problem I'm repairing Milwaukee brand cordless caulking guns that have become "obsolete" due introduction of their newer M18 line. While they're supposedly "new and improved" the older versions were much more robust, some of mine approaching 20 years old I believe.

I've repeatedly searched online for the parts but apart from Canada no one shows them available, Milkaukee long ago stopped supporting this particular tool for the items I need.

These repair parts are no longer available anywhere in the USA but a seller in Canada has them in stock however they're contractually forbidden from seller to the USA which is why I need help.

Naturally I might be better served to just knuckle under and buy the "new and improved" versions but they're highly unimpressive when compared to the earlier models.

Oh well.....................with the help of a few here I'll be able to keep my dinosaur tools running strong for a while longer now.
