I live in B.C. close to the border and often buy products in the States and have them shipped to a drop off center, that way I can save tremendously on shipping charges. In fact I'm having Charisma send my finished quilt to their center where I'll pick it up. There are definitely reputable firms which do this type of business. You just have to research what's available to you in your area. You would have to pay duty on your product though when you pick it up and bring it back across the border. Good luck with your shopping. I hope you find what you are looking for.

With a long arm, you want them to come set it up. It can save you a lot of headache.
