jim Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 And being a Cabela's Card Carrying member I also get FREE SHIPPING on ANYTHING...... We can't get free shipping from Cabelas. Evidently , they have to swim the stuff accross the lake, and that 's really expensive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yea, that right....if it was a colder winter shipping would be reasonable as they could just drive across Lake Erie... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike rousseau Posted December 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 (edited) Good deals but after shipping and brokerage fees is it still a great deal? I'd like to know the final cost for future ref. Never had brokerage fees with cabelas.... Just tax and duty.... If shipped to Canada.... But I'm on the NY state border... So I send my orders to a shipping company in NY and go pick it up when I get gas... And depending how much the order is customs usually doesn't bother with duty and tax.... So I end up paying 0% HST tax... 0% NY state tax and no duty on most merchandise that I order....

ch312 Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 Good deals but after shipping and brokerage fees is it still a great deal? I'd like to know the final cost for future ref. 90% of the stuff we buy online is from the US and it's always been cheapest to have the sellers ship via USPS. UPS has to be the worst for charging brokerage and other silly fees. the worst for me from them was a $28 brokerage fee for a "free" replacement game call with a value of $0.01 and specifically labeled warranty replacement or something along those lines. some shippers will say they won't ship USPS, but we've convinced more than a few to help us out and do it anyways it usually works out to at least 25% cheaper than buying in canada after shipping. to save even more money, use a service such as Kinek so you can take advantage of FREE shipping within the US which many retailers offer. you signup online for free and then select the closest participating place that accepts and holds packages for $5 each. the retailer then ships to this place (the one i use happens to be a storage locker place) for free and they hold the packages for a month allowing you time for multiple shipments to arrive. then simply drive down and pickup all your goodies. the money we save on the shipping costs alone is worth the drive for us. don't forget to buy some cheap booze on the way back like we did one time!
