You'll be paying the HST, Shipping Fees will be collect along with Customs Fees. Trust me, the government will get their share. Check to see if you can ship USPS with tracking number. Its byfar the most economical and reliable.

Based on the price I'd say you would actually be paying for shipping - it's not really free it's just baked into the price.

There's an ebay vendor that's selling the Magnaflow 15697 for 322 USD including shipping ... and the vendor has 100% feedback.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Magnaflow...2550wt_939



EDIT: you do realize of course that free shipping, or included shipping is within the lower 48 only. The shipping to Canada for the ebay link above is 39 bucks, and that's via UPS which means you will also have to pay UPS brokerage fees in addition to the HST at the border.

DOUBLE EDIT: just doing the math, it looks like the deal you linked to is not too bad. The $ are USD, which is equivalent to roughly 410 CAD - it includes HST so back that out and you get 363 shipped ... allow roughly 40 bucks for shipping and you're paying 320 for the exhaust.
