Anyone in the US willing to help receive and send on items to Europe? Canada is okay - thanks RockiMtn - but the US is where it's at on eBay

Or... can you usually avoid Canadian import duty with used goods...?

i pick up most, if not all my parts from the US. I only purchase items if the seller is willing to use USPS standard mail, and not a courier company, such as UPS or Fedex as these companies charge ridiculous brokerage fees. Using USPS, I have barely seen any duties on most of my purchases.

Chiswick/Gatwick/Brighton corridor... Update 4/18..

Daughter graduated and left home so sensible car gone, now down to a small 2 seater, so parts only im afraid.
