Americans should buy Lee Valley tools and sell back to Canadians on Ebay.

Robert,

Go back fifteen years when the Canadian dollar was dropping like a boat anchor into a thousand feet of water. What do you think happened then?

Lee Valley is an upstanding company that delivers the best service I have ever received. If you are not happy with them, then please take your dollars elsewhere - try Canadian Tire, the BORG, Wallmart or whatever. With an attitude like yours I'm sure they would love to have your business while you whine about the 50-60% mark up they often use. Oh, and about those hard to find items that LV carries, you will do a hell of a lot of driving to find them elsewhere, that is if anyone else has them.

By the way, have you ever figure out the overhead costs of running a business and providing real customer service?

Please take your drivel elsewhere!!

[Leon]

Which begs the question, why post the same question so many times.

[Frank Ketchum]

Perhaps you can shove it. They are a reputable company that sells fine products. If you have a problem with them take your huge amount of business elsewhere. Lee Valley owes you no explanations.

[Robert]

Because that's what Rob Lee wanted.

In one of my first posts I praised Lee Valley customer service and felt it was worth paying a bit more.

Rob Lee in his response snipped that part of my post out. His response was basically marching orders to his groupies to flame me out of the Wreck.

Didn't work as well as he liked, so a few days later Rob responded with a veiled threat.

That didn't work either. Just verified that he's an asshole.

I've already said that along with common sense, Lee Valley groupies lack any semblance of self control.

[Robert]

What does that have to do with current Lee Valley pricing policy?

[Richard Clements]

I think someone needs a thicker tin foil hat

[Robert]

LRod is a trout with the IQ of a cedar post, that's why. He also suffers from a common problem among wreck regulars. A complete lack of self control. Lee Valley should start marketing Depends to these guys. They would really clean up financially. Of course Canadians would be charged more.

[Robert]

Well you know the drill Frank, bend over and spreadem!

LOL! Like I said, these groupies are completely incontinent.

I live within 2 miles of the Canadian border. In all the trips I've made into Canada never once did an inspector on either side of the bridge look at my gas gauge. My job has required me to be on site while the lanes at the inspection booths were dug up to install various sensors/detectors since 9/11. There are/were no scales.

Years ago a co-worker rented a cottage in Canada for the summer. One day he while crossing the border into the US he made the mistake of telling the inspector to hurry up as he was running a few minutes late for work. They pulled him over and practically disassembled his car, removing the seats, dash, upholstery panels, etc. After finding nothing they were kind enough to loan him a screwdriver so he could put his car back together. He got to work

7 hours late.

Well that's good to hear! Do you shop in Canada and bring it all home, no problem?

... at least one can smoke a joint in front of a cop B.C. ...a bit more relaxed than here! (not that I do that myself of course, and I do not)

Each of my posts was to a particular poster who had responded.

LOL! Never, ever reveal vulnerability.

Fortunately I didn't have to reassemble the car. But then, I'd also managed to return on a Saturday morning when all the Canadians were headed south to do their grocery shopping so the customs were somewhat limited time wise.

[Nova]

I've never had a problem. Of course I declare everything I purchase as well. In general you're allowed a duty free exemption for most items up to a total value of $200 for each person family member that resides in your household and is with you, provided you've been in Canada less than 48 hour and haven't used the "duty free" exemption in the last 30 days.
