To order from CMA for shipping to Canada, do I have to call them with my order or do anything else that is not normal?
I do not see the option to ship to Canada.
Thanks

They don`t ship to Canada. Call tim at Tacscar.com; He ships to Canada. I had a Mail Boxes Etc box in NFNY and ordered from CMA. Service was great but I guess they don`t want the hassle of shipping up here.

Sometimes I don`t understand what the big deal is with companies and not shipping to Canada. I run a mail order business myself and shipping to Canada just takes an extra 2 minutes per order to fill out a customs form. One single form in which you declar the contents, and the value of the item. That`s it. I don`t really understand why companies don`t accomodate Canadian orders...
I`m Canadian and will be moving back to Montreal in a few week`s time. I guess I`ll be ordering from good ol` Tim at Tacscar...

Jademonkey,
It`s possible that your bank will reject the credit card payment. I`ve found that Bank of Montreal (MC) will do that for foreign orders where the vendor doesn`t have the card in hand. Now, I call the MC service line to give them a heads-up that a charge for x dollars from vendor y will be coming through shortly.
Huh? What happened to this thread?

4DSC that is the reason I was wondering how to do it.
I read that thread awhile ago and since I am running out of a few things I figured I would try CMA since they ship to canada, but I cannot find a way to do it.
I usually order from tascar and they are great(especially since I won the P21S kit in his draw) but CMA has a few items that I want to try(BBT, Glass Towels etc)
If anyone else can help I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks

Why don`t you try emailing or calling them? From the reviews I have read here, CMA has fantastic customer service. So go ahead and ask them. Please post your results, as I am Canadian too and would like to know....

I`ve emailed them 3 times so far in the past week and have not got a response.
Im going to try calling them tomorrow.
Hmm, maybe they`re backed up? I got a reply when I asked about this a couple months back. Nice, polite, long and detailed response.
Good luck.

Jademonkey and others, has anyone from Canada actually made a succesful order from CMA yet? Since the GB for Meguiar`s pads have fallen through, I am interested in acquiring a set of CMA pads to try. Now if I can only find that darn 6" counterweight in Western Canada without having to buy the stupid sanding kit for $30!!!:(
couple of days. I too was disappointed when the group fell through but it`s understanded given the circumstances he was going through.
I`ll post a new thread about the details next week if it works out.

Cool. That would be great dude. Yeah, I PM`d with Max a couple of times and felt bad that I was bugging him, given his problems.
Let me know, I had got together with another PC owner and need counterweights and a whole bunch of pads. Max told me that mine was the largest order of the bunch he had.
Thanks.
