Purchasing dies from the US?

[MLine052]

I took advance of the BassPro promo at christmas and have ordered since as well on par with CAD. My issue is distance to travel with my F250 and gas. Bonus I get what I want, no need to call or search around. Cost a little more.

Ship by usps intfc and there will be no duty or brokerage fees but you may ger hit for taxes and possibly a 10$ CBSA fee.

My last dies were from Brownells no problem USPS INTFC is important for items that can fit in a small box.. 9X6 inches I believe

my last die purchase from cabelas US went without any issues.. but now i would buy it here if i can find what i am looking for since the falling loonie makes it pretty pricey.

Never had a problem myself.

Do not use UPS (United Parcel Service) as they will charge brokerage fees and rip you off big time. Biggest thieves in the parcel delivery game.

I order from TitanReloading.com all the time. Never have an issue, though Customs can be slow...

DO NOT get them shipped to a US address and bring them over yourself... ITAR is complicated and apparently there are provisions that only cleared parties may export.

I disagree. Hand loading tools/accessories are ITAR exempt. I drove my press/dies/etc back across the border, and only paid duty. I had to sign a waiver with the supplier, mid south shooters, acknowledging full responsibility for all that. I printed off a copy of the ITAR exemption but didn't have to produce it, CBSA seemed to know what I was bringing back.

I had a .270 brass stuck so bad I called lee. For about the same price as sending it to them for removal I just bought a new one from them in the us.
