Buying Parts Online

I'm wondering what are some good online stores. I'm in Canada and a lot of the "cool" after market parts I can't get here. Any place that's got good reputation and selection that can ship to Canada would be nice ;). Oh yes, I'm mainly looking for parts for my beta rev3 08.

I'm in Canada and I've used this site to purchase parts http://www.tryalsshop.com.

Thought about this one http://www.rypusa.com as they have some foldable levers, but I still have a spare set so haven't needed to buy yet.

I've also purchased some raptor footpegs from the UK, arrived very quickly and they are fantastic pegs but ended up a bit more expensive than I had thought as I had to pay duty and broker fees.

My local beta dealer has most things I would ever need and the Canadian gasgas distributer is local and stocks some generic stuff so I can get just about every thing locally.

how was the duty and broker fees? I know that if you send it by UPS, Fedex, DHL, there is heavy brokerage fee, but I Thought with the UK Royal mail there is only duty? wasn't there no duty on motorcycle parts either? or is that just from the US. Whenever I buy parts from across the border I only get charged gst and pst.

I will try to find the bill, it came UK Royal Mail but I still received a bill from a brokerage firm. Can't recall if it was brokerage fees + duty or just brokerage fees but there isn't a free trade agreement with the UK (at least not that I know of). I think it was around $40-50 canadian.

With the NAFTA there should only be pst/gst from the states if you use the postal service. UPS has always charged me huge handling/brokerage fees (not duty). I don't recall Purolator/Fedex or DHL charging me anything other than the actual shipping costs + gst/pst, but I have only used them a couple of times.
