Hanging out with Brice at Tudor AD and guess what...

[hoppyjr]

When my stuff sells I see a road trip to Vancouver in my future...

[gwells]

i keep working on Toronto projects with no trips to Toronto. That needs to change. There's a Tudor dealer in downtown Toronto.

One of our Canadian friends needs to step up to the plate.

[Mr_Pacman]

I can help out, but there are lots of logistics to work out.

Where's Danny?

Y'all are nuts; blue Pelagos is tits. I'll definitely have one in time for pool/beach season next year.

Do three or four of them and charge two bills each. It's still a bargain. Then pick up a new Shogun or something. I'm an enabler.

[Panerai7]

Got it taken care of, called mom, mom called tudor, they're making this one next year

[marchone]

... they're making this one next year.

What means this?

Just kidding around, bored at work

[marchone]

You work?

[Panerai7]

You work?

wish I didn't have to

[marchone]

I thought you were an old guy that retired on your Alcoa stock.

Jesus it would be amazing if we could do this

If the black BB's come out to under 2k, I think I'd have to buy one. At that price it would be worth offering one of our Canadian members $100 to facilitate and ship from this side of the border.

So this. Take my money now.

I missed David's post. He's cheap on their dime.

Sign me up no brainer.

[GregBe]

I'd be in, if we could figure something out.

[gwells]

really tempting, because there would be nearly no risk financially.

Not to be a party pooper, but.....

Canadian dealers are not likely to ship to the USA, for fear of Tudor/Rolex agreements. If buying in Canada, you'll be required to pay PST and GST, which is $508 on $4400 CAD. Normally you can request a refund of this if you are a visitor from the USA, but that creates a paper trail, which could come back to bite you on the ass. Who's doing the ass-biting? US Customs.

Then....$4400 CAD (say, a Pelagos) plus $508 tax = $4908 CAD = is approximately $4220 USD.

I rink you're better off finding a friendly AD in the USA (we know a few, right?) and have it shipped from another state to avoid sales tax. With even a 5% discount you break even with this elaborate Canadian purchase plan.

Seems like too much work for too little benefit.

2 things:

1) Not all provinces have PST. You would have to pay 5% GST regardless of the province but in Alberta we don't have a PST tax.
2) You are not factoring in the 20 to 25% discount the AD will give.

So, $4,400 CAD Pelagos after 20% discount is $3,520 ($3,300 with a 25% discount).
add 5% GST which is $3,696 (20%) or $3,465 (25%).

Convert those prices to US dollars as per xe.com $2,812 (20%) or $2,637 (25%).

Now, on top of that, there would be the shipping cost from the Canadian AD to the Canadian WUS member ($50 to $75). Then shipping the watch to the US from Canada which becomes the tricky part, as Canada Post won't let you insure the full value amount and I believe it's a max $500 on watches. So then other shipping options would have to be explored such as FedEx, UPS etc. I have no idea on those costs and if there are any duties, taxes etc that US Customs would want.
