Thanks for pointing that out, and they seem to have a pretty full selection.

Is it really cheaper? I didn't actually check but it looked the same to me. Funny about the shipping, I thought it was pretty reasonable IIRC, and of course Labo USA ships from Canada, or at least it did a few months ago when I ordered my little bottle of Idrosave (they don't seem to have that small size at Autoality). OK I looked it up, it was 12.95 for the Idrosave, and 9.50 shipping, they do have free shipping at $100.

Maybe our Canadian members can explain why it's so much cheaper to ship from Canada to the US, vs. shipping from the US to Canada.

Our dollar sucks compared to yours, lol.

OK, either I am senile (quite possible) or stupid (quite probable) or I lied (hope not)

I could have sworn when I did a dummy order direct from Labo on my phone yesterday to see what prices and shipping would be it was going to be $20 shipping but today, sitting with my laptop shipping would be $12.50 so direct from Labo IS CHEAPER

That's not the whole story, is it? Sometimes we ship stuff up to CAN from work and it's always a nightmare. Which is why all these...what to call them, logistics companies? Have set up shops to ship to just south of the border, and somehow the stuff gets into Canada--as opposed to shipping UPS, etc.

And there were always stories here or at Autopia of Canadian members near the border asking US members or friends in the US near the border to order stuff for them and they would come pick it up. I'm just saying that the Carzilla shipping rates seem very reasonable, as did the Labo US, as opposed to something I was looking at in a UK store that was $100+ to ship to the US. Of course there are no boats or airplanes involved in getting from Canada to the US.

It's all moot to me, I'm desperately trying not to buy any more detailing stuff.

I don't get it either, and shipping is one huge reason I have basically made Carzilla my one stop shopping store (no, I am not affiliated nor do I get a kickback)

They don't have Labo and although it seems to be really good stuff, their product line is enormous and convoluted and I swore when we moved back to Alaska I was going to use KISS as my mantra for rebuilding my arsenal

I have already violated that a few times and I am really trying to streamline things s much as possible

I think I am going to sit here on the sidelines and let you guys wring out the Labo twins before I further complicate my life

YMMV

On a separate note, I went into a parts store yesterday for a non detailing item and they had a bunch of the square 5 gallon drums of Meguiar's products including Hyper Dressing and Hyper Wash sitting out in front of the counter

I immediately started formulating a plan to burglarize the joint...
