Canadian bb.com warehouse

[Snowy91]

That would be beautiful, I buy from bb.com anyways but with lower shipping costs and faster delivery you guys would have a monopoly and would be unstoppable. Everyone of my friends would switch from GNC to online purchasing. Whenever I suggest bb.com they are like whats shipping? How long does it take? They are never convinced by the answers...

[ryanbedic]

for sure i'd be up for a local warehouse

[mpz]

Agree, GNC are too expensive, lol!

[UCD20]

Do It

[john_29]

Only reason I don't order from bb.com is the incredibly high shipping to Canada. I would definately buy from here if they had a warehouse in Canada.

[cawchy]

bb.com would dominate the canadian market. Amazing idea, I would buy all my supps from them.

[j_wk]

hope this comes true. most of my supps take 10 working days to come, today is the 10th (****ing easter) i hope i see it any second now.

Get a few friends together and make a big order and you will save a lot of money, that is what I do here in BC, save a lot , F*CK GNC, BB.com all the way

[eagles56]

I really hope this happens, tons of people would save a great deal of cash

[chumbucket_]

i would take the greyhound all the way to toronto (two hours) to get to your warehouse. The only reason i dont buy from bb.com now is because i only have a debit card, but i got a whole list of stuff i wanna buy which total to more than $500, do it!!!!

[King of the Misc]

Has a Canadian bb.com warehouse been looked into for feasability? Your loyal buyers (me included) have to wait around 2 weeks for our shipments to come in. I am certain you guys would rule the Canadian market if you got a warehouse up here.

wtf you wait 2 weeks?!

I live in australia and my orders off bb.com have gotten here in 5 days

They also won't allow BB.com to ship some of their products that I can buy here for twice the price. - Like Animal Paks

[bmxer_lifter]

i hate wasting all my money at gnc its such a rip, it wud be awesome if they had a warehouse in Canada

[p0ff3r]

That Would Be Awesome If That Happen!!!

[cr_7up]

The prices are going to be the exact same if bb.com has a warehouse in Canada. Canada has import fees and taxes on products when they come into Canada. This increases the cost base of the product and that extra cost will be passed onto the consumer.

There is competition that bb.com has to deal with too, this probably will result in pricing wars but not significant reductions. Reflex and Popeyes are the 2 main suppliers of supplements. You can count GNC if you want but I think GNC is bull****.

The cheapest way for Canadians to get inexpensive supplements are to buy from Canadian based manufactures such as PVL or get Harper to increase the $20 exemption for goods imported into Canada. $20 bucks!! Goods that qualify as a "GIFT" have a $60 exemption but they must be from someone other than a business.

Yeah, the prices would be the same as we currently pay BUT we would get them in 10 days or less instead of 3-4 weeks, and nothing would get stuck at the border.

BIG difference.

[Dedicatedforlife]

TOTALLY AGREE WITH THIS IDEA!!! I would order so many more products if the shipping wasn't so damn expensive!!!

[skuZZitude]

WOuld order lots of products too.

[BballBuilder]

agreed, I would be all over this.

[ohthekai]

I seriously doubt the fact that this hasn't been put forth before. Likewise, the only thing keeping me from ordering is the rip-off on shipping. Hopefully they will charge worth the exchange rate, a few dollars give or take, unlike many of out fine Canadian retailers who overcharge. That is absolutely disgusting.

[MrJumpoff]

i fully support this! shipping charges are ridiculous, thank goodness they don't charge duty.

They sometimes do! If they stop your package, then your boned!

how bad would a duty charge be? price wise

I've been charged $50 before on an order that was like $130 with shipping .

Postal Program -- Duty-free and tax-exempt importations

The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) can examine any item that comes into Canada by mail.

You may have to pay duty, the goods and services tax (GST) or harmonized sales tax (HST), and provincial sales tax (PST) on items mailed to you. This depends on:

the item's value in Canadian dollars
whether or not it is a gift.

----------------------------------------

Value in Canadian dollars

If someone mails you an item worth $20 CAN or less, you don't have to pay duty or tax on the item.

If the item is worth more than $20 CAN, you must pay the applicable duty, the GST or HST, and any PST on the item's full value.

----------------------------------------

Items that qualify as a "gift"

For an item to qualify as a "gift", another person must send it to you personally and must include a card or other notice indicating that it's a gift.

If you receive an imported gift by mail and it's worth $60 CAN or less, you don't have to pay duty or tax.

If the gift is worth more than $60, you must pay duty and tax on the amount over $60 CAN.

For example, if a relative sends you a gift worth $200 CAN, you must pay the applicable duty, the GST or HST, and any PST on $140 CAN.

----------------------------------------

Duty and taxes
Payable on most items imported into Canada, the amount of duty and tax you owe -- if any -- will be shown on Form E-14, Customs Postal Import Form, which will be attached to your mail item.

All mail items are subject to a $5 CAN handling fee payable to Canada Post.
All amounts must be paid at the time of delivery (cash, certified cheque, VISA?, MasterCard?, or your Canada Post commercial account).

----------------------------------------

Regional requirements

Newfoundland/Labrador, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick residents are assessed the harmonized sales tax (HST) instead of the GST.

British Columbia, Manitoba, Ontario and Quebec residents are required to pay provincial sales tax.
