Is Simoniz (Canada) stuff crap?

i will never use the Teflon stuff but i bought a jobmate pressure washer from there for 74 bones and its 1600 psi which is good enough for me
 
Not to sound dumb but why can't you buy from venders in the U.S? Is it because of the postage, duty tax? just wondering ...

we can order it but its expensive to ship alot of things like a presure washer (im not even gonna imagine what shipping would be) also its nice to have that tangable object in your hand when u pay for it. Im sure eveyone on here is like myself and likes to try new things and are very impatent. Canadian tire and stores like that give us an oppertunity to tr new things when we want. Also when we need somthing for a job and we canr wait for an order its a good option

buying from the u.s. can be murder. we get charged duty, taxes, brokerage fees, shipping. here in ontario we pay 15% sales tax. i live in a border town to michigan so i can spend up to $70.00 and bringit across without problems. any more than that and you get charged up the wazoo. i ahve the simoniz cordless polisher and it is great for applying waxes and lsp's. i have used it for almost 3 years now with no problem. i got it on sale for $30.00 so i made out o.k. i also use their microfiber wash mitt and find it is great. it is still intact and solid and it is used 5-6 times a day.
 
Put it this way...I just ordered some FK 2180 and 425. I have to pay the exchange rate + about $20 shipping (express, which is about a week and a half) and then when it gets here I have to pay tax which is about 15% of my order. Soooo....these 2 items will cost around 60-70 dollars....crazy, but I think you get the point:(
