@Mynticelx - I believe
@the Tamale Kid also wants to buy one of the new Canadian MT's and lives in California. You two might think about partnering and seeing if a Canadian retail outlet might be more willing to ship to the US with multiple orders. Here is a list of retailers in Canada posted by
@MacEggs on another thread:
http://drmz.net/weber/Weber_MT_Colours-e.pdfIn February I did some research regarding purchasing on of the MT's from Canada. Here is one retailer and a contact person I found that will ship to the United States:
Ontario Gas BBQ,
www.BBQS.com, is more than happy to ship the Mastertouch Kettles to US customers.
The only issue is the freight.
Email Duff, duff@bbqs.com, with your telephone number, full name & address and he will get back to you with a freight quote.
The Canadian Mastertouches sell for $299.99 in Canadian Dollars and when your credit card company processes the transaction your cost in US Dollars will be approximately $225.00 US Dollars.
The freight charge will be extra. Ontario Gas BBQ is not out to make money on the freight cost. If the quoted freight cost is $68.00 they will round up to the nearest $5.00 which would be $70.00. Example only.
(A recent quote to California was $172.00 – Ouch)
