562xp price?

[MuskokaSplitter]

Local hardware store has a 562xp for 899.99 Cdn. I thought that was crazy high. Am i wrong?

Yes thats high. Contact Spike60 or TLandrum they're dealers and sponsors here you won't get one cheaper than from these guys even with shipping to Canada.

Yep, that is above MSRP.

Sadly not above Canadian MSRP. I had posted a thread last weekend. Husqvarna has a fall flyer out and the 562XP's are all around $900 depending on bar size.

Opps, I miss the Canada thing. Yes, that's about right then...

 

[KenJax Tree]

Seems high for Canada too but maybe not

Quite a few extra taxes and fees in Canada . Steve

Sadly this is the way it is. I couldn't find the flyer online so here is a picture of the most significant page as well as a link to the previous post about it.

Ok so for a local hardware store in northern ontario i guess they arent pricing to bad in comparison with msrp.

Just thought it seemed to high, but i guess im used to the A.S. TRADING POST pricing lol

Even with shipping, Terry Landrum or Spike60 has to be cheaper?

I would think so. In Ontario the sales tax on top of that would be 15% so I am pretty sure you could get a ported one from Terry for no more than the extra shipping. Stock a couple hundred cheaper I am sure.

Sales tax here in Ontario is 13%. If you intend of getting a saw shipped from the US, be certain the shipper uses the proper commodity code on the shipping manifest/customs declaration, that way all you have to pay is the tax on the item, versus paying duty and taxes. Dependant upon how a saw is shipped, shipping cost can escalate very quickly to the $150-$200CDN range.

Where is "your CL"? I should assume you are not the seller?

 

[DexterDay]

Akron Ohio CL..

No. I am not the seller.. I am a Stihlhead!

Owned a 545, 550xp, 555, and 562xp. They are nice. Just not for me.
