Default Calling Canadians

I need some advice on selling my bike to one of you folk and want to know if any of you ever dealt with customs before.

Do any of you know about Interac money transfer? Is it something to do besides paypal?

What about Bill of Sales with Canada? I have more questions about this, but rather do this through PM.

Do you know if it is required to have a no recall notice or something?

I wouldn't sell to another country unless you for some reason know the person there. When we ship stuff or get parts from vendors, we have to pay a customs tax. When you ship something to Canada, they have to pay the import tax, PST, GST and some other tax.

Socialistic governments..go figure on the taxes...

If it were me, I'd have him come get it or arrange to have it shipped himself. You get the money, sign the title and the rest is his problem. Just my .02

I agree.

It'd have to be a hell of an offer to jump through that many hoops.

You sure he's legit?

Besides, for what you're asking, you shouldn't have any problem selling that bike.

We ship a lot of bikes over seas and we make the customer do all the leg work to set up the shipping, all we do is drop the bike off in a crate and leave...after the bike is paid for of course. in fact i just sold a bike to a guy in Grand Cayman today and did a quote for another to Brazil.

usually what the customer would want is a dummy invoice to keep the duty tax low...Good Luck
