Looking for a Canadian Companies that sell Arcade Parts for MAME

<< < (2/5) > >>

RayB:
The quick answer is, there's no real options in Canada.

Just make sure to order from places that do not ship via UPS or FedEx.

Taxes and brokerage fees are just par for the course with ordering from outside Canada, though you don't get charged anything if the item is worth less than $20.

Thanks all for replying...

I am building the cabinet myself, I just need the joysticks, buttons, and and I-PAC 4. Which leads me to the next question? I plan on building a 4 player control panel, the only one I see that can handle it is the I-PAC 4, on the other sites I see them with there style of interfaces but none of them seem to handle enough to allow 4 players. Do you combine 2 of them or something, and if I get and I-PAC I would have to order from just one company.

What i'm doing is using a GP-Wiz40 MAX USB Controls Input Interface with a LED-Wiz+GP™ 16 Output + 16 Input, Output and Gaming Controller to give a total of 56 inputs for my panel plus gives me 16 out puts to work with.  I was thinking about using an ipac4 for my build but i opted to go with GGG and get a sweet trackball as well  8).

Check with Divemaster127 in B/S/T.  I can't recall but I think he ships with USPS.  I don't know how that affects the situation going to Canada (i.e. additional fees), but he is a reseller of Ultimarc products.

Andy ships via DHL but, again, I am not sure how fees affect that.  I can't imagine it would be different for DHL than for UPS or FedEx, but I'll defer to someone else for that answer.

USPS is good -- they hand off to Canada Post, who charges $5 as their brokerage fee.

DHL was good last time I used them -- their brokerage fee wasn't $5, but it also wasn't $50+, which I have had from UPS before. They also sometimes forget to bill you for duties and taxes.
