Summit Free Shipping to Canada!!!


I got my order from Summit on Friday & Got "BANGED $143.77 " Shipping charge"" by DHL Couriers!!!  Looks like it's "FREE" to border then from there on "IT AIN'T!!! Got clipped for &172.46 HST as well, all in US funds so my $1326.66 ended up costing me over $2200 CDN!!!  Summit site says "free shipping to Canada" but I guess you have to "read between the lines" !!!!!! DHL is Cdn. Courier, & HST could have been worse if it had been converted to Cdn. funds before applying it.  Bent over the barrel, NO LUBE!!!!

Beware Summit Free Shipping to Canada!!!


Just received a text from Summit saying a credit has been issued to my US Visa card for the shipping and should show up in 2 to 4 days!! It should have been shipped by FEDEX NOT DHL ??? Will let you know as soon as I do if it comes through???

Why would posting this on Cdn Poncho be your first move? I'd think a call to the vendor would be a good first move.

Slight change of topic but Rockauto does most of their shipping into Canada with UPS but use DHL for any returns going back.

The HST is a non starter. Everyone pays that unless you visit the states.
Their website lists the all in shipping. Looks like an oversight by DHL ? Looks like Summit has your back by issuing the credit.

Every order I have made from Summit for home delivery was followed by a phone call to their order desk to confirm that the order will be shipped with FedEx. It hasnt happened yet but if for some reason it had to be shipped by UPS or any other, I would cancel the order, reorder with a shipping address to a parcel depot south of the border and drive down to pick it up.

I havent had any additional charges with FedEx. Somehow the tracking of Summit orders originates in Ontario. I dont know how that works but it makes point to point shipping from Summit to my door manageable.

Manitobans still have our taxes separate (PST & GST). It seems as though when Ive ordered from Summit with FedEx shipping the PST is overlooked or minimized somehow. Ive never questioned it.

 I wish we still had that option but I guess it's going to be a while...

I've only bought once from Summit but it was a great experience. The driver walked up to my counter at work, handed me the box with a clutch in it and I never heard a word from anyone again wanting more money.

As far as i know, summit covers the costs and tells you the up front duty and tax costs. I would say it way an error, that is why you are getting a refund

Never heard anything bad about summit shipping across to canada until this thread,  and i have known alot of people using summit with no problems.

 Would you consider editing the title of your post then Pete, it is very misleading because you wrote it in haste and the way it reads now and provides a poor impression of Summit when in fact they came up aces for you. Maybe something like: 

Summit Offers Great Customer Service to Correct Shipping Errors Quickly !!!

Standard processing time is 3 to 4 days on refunds from the time the vendor processes it. Sometimes it will show up as pending on your account if you have on-line access before it actually hits your credit column.

Haven't ordered from Summit for a while but when I did (and it was frequent) I always

specified Fed-Ex ground. Parts are shipped from Woodbridge, Ontario and no additional charges

ever appeared. Hope things have not changed.
