So there was a deal on a Kitchen Aid mixer http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=1C2-0001-00083 for $219. I ordered and paid with my Canadian paypal account, to ship to my mailbox across the border. Newegg cancelled my order, because they won't service Canadian credit cards or Paypal accounts on their US site. FFFFFUUUUU I went to Esso, purchased a prepaid visa for $20. Went to the giftcard site and addded the address of my mailbox as my home address Created a new paypal account with address of my mailbox and added the giftcard as my main card. Paypal checks credit card company, addresses match, instant US verified paypal account. Sent myself money from my Canadian account to my US account. Paid Newegg. Result, mixer is sitting at my mailbox waiting for pickup, allow me to say FFFFFUUUUU to Newegg.... |

Wow, $418 for that on Amazon.ca. That is some serious cake prepping. Nice score. Edit, ebay.ca has it cheap: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/KitchenAid-R-KV25...k-/360536378850 |

|||||||
when you say mailbox do you mean like CBI or similar? basically a US freight forwarding house? |

There is a simpler way of doing this, you can add a second billing address to your CC, problem solved. I have my PO box as my secondary billing address, card is recognized as a US card, haven't had problems. When are you going? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Doesn't work with Newegg, I have my mailbox as my secondary billing address. As soon as they realize its a card issued by a Canadian bank, they cancel your order. Originally Posted By: loudsubz I guess you forgot any paypal fees you had and the travel and has to pickup In sure the math adds up in your head though I'm going anyway to pick up other things, so the travel is a sunk cost. What paypal fees, you don't pay fees if you send money, only if you receive money funded by credit card |

Ten bucks says he got this colour....can anyone guess the name of said colour? |

I've always wondered if that would work with the fake jersey websites. I ordered some a couple years ago, and they were awesome, and cheap, but they ripped off my visa after it was over and frauded it. So, when you buy the prepaid cards, you still go online and register them to your house like its a real visa? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
at the colour name. |

The one in OP's post is not a tilt head and the mixing bowl doesn't need to 'clip' into the base and of course more powAh. |

Buys hundreds if not thousands of dollars in goods from the U.S. but makes half a dozen posts about how shit the Canadian dollar is and how it's not worth purchasing anything from the states. Good work. |

Posted it in OT a few days back, the deal is already done. Originally Posted By: robbbby Buys hundreds if not thousands of dollars in goods from the U.S. but makes half a dozen posts about how shit the Canadian dollar is and how it's not worth purchasing anything from the states. Good work. If you wait for the sales, it still is., otherwise, it isn't. I'll give you an example, I just bought a jacket. US price, $595 US, I bought it from Harry in FCP (close to my work), price, $695 http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/boss-hugo-boss-coxtan-wool-blend-overcoat/3782220?origin=category At the time, the $595 US = $691 CAD. |

Walmart doesn't carry the Pro. They all like almost the same but there are differences like tilting head and more powAh of course. |
