Would definitely be appreciated, options for a good box are limited up here(without bending over to So). (Toronto, Canada, does anyone know where I can see these boxes? I'm going to try Costco today on my way home but I don't know if they'll even let me in nevermind them actually having the 75 inch box on display)

Ok, I'll look into that today, what are you looking for in pictures ?

I'm also looking into upgrading to one of these international boxes, also wondering how well the value series has been holding up. I'm also contemplating running down to buffalo and pick up a 56" or 2 44" boxes but i'm kinda worried about the border dicks will do when the see a big tool box in the bed of my truck.

Just be honest. You are not gonna smuggle a tool box across the border. Simply pay the tax and move on. I cross multiple times without issue. You will be miles ahead monetarily than buying here. The HF box will be a little better build quality than the International VALUE series box.

Cheapest place currently is Home Depot for the International box. Watch for sales at Lowes, HD and Costco.

I will be going to HF at some point to get the 56" combo.

I would'nt smuggle the boxes across, I would probably shove a couple of bottles of booze and a couple 24's inside the tool box lol. Joking aside would you have to pay HST and duty if bringing the boxes across?

You pay the 13% HST.

I have never been charged duties even for items that don't fall under NAFTA. and with US General on the box, they won't even question it.

The 56" combo ends up being $700 ( with coupon) + 400= $1100 + 8.75% NY tax = ~$1200 + 1.11% exchange=$1330 + 13%HST=~C$1500

Just waiting on a deal or coupon on the top box. I may also try and work a deal for both as some have already managed to do here.

Thanks, I think for these reasons and others I'm looking at the 42 inch pro series.
I got quoted 2700$ for a 60 inch Rousseau.
