HobbyTech is no longer accepting orders from US customers through the website. The primary reason is that customs charges have to be calculated and prepared for you manually. The courier companies requires that tariffs, taxes and fees are collected in advance.
Please place your orders by email. We will prepare your order and forward your total cost including customs duties and shipping cost for delivery by a courier like UPS, FedEx and Purolator.
US tariff refers to the import duties and fees applied to goods entering the U.S., which vary based on the product, its country of origin, and recent policy changes. The US administration has recently eliminated its de minimis exemption for most shipments, meaning all shipments may now be subject to taxes and fees including but not limited to brokerage charges. The duties are cost to be paid by the US consumer and must in most cases be paid in advance through the carrier used to import your goods.
We ship world wide with Canada Post* at cost + $4 Handling Charge . Courier service is also available within Canada.
We do NOT offer Free Shipping. Pick-Up in store is defined as a shipping option and is of course at no charge. As this is the lowest cost option it is also the default by the website.
