So I've been browsing around some other threads and it seems Cabelas and MidwayUSA are a no go when it comes to things like dies and presses. Are there any other places I can order online from the states so I don't have to pay retarded Canadian prices?
 
grafs. com ships to canada as well. as stated above make sure you use USPS not UPS or you will get bent over with a 'brokereage fee"
 
"...order online from the States..." Dillon will ship presses and other equipment, but can't ship components. You'll have to pay duty, taxes and shipping.
U.S. manufacturers/retailers are required to have an export licence. Most don't want to bother getting/paying it for small orders. Also if they have a Canadian distributor, they'd violate their contract with said distributor if they shipped direct.
 
There is rarely duty applied to any low value shipment imported by mail. Also, if you have it shipped to a "company" you will not be charged the PST either.
 
:)I bought my Hornady lock & load from Cabelas as well as other reloading components (no bullets, powders & primers) but lube, scale, dies

good service, fast delivery, no problems:)

I've ordered dies from Cabelas without any problems. As with most, if not all, reloading equipment they're considered tools so it's okay.
 
I use Mid-south for most of my reloading stuff, Buffalo Arms for the real hard to get and antique type stuff, no problem shipping reloading equip. just not components. Midway will not ship anything to Canada as they got caught shipping scopes to CDA and got fined 250K.
