Good stores around Toronto? - Snowboarding Forum

casuals · 12-14-2011, 12:29 AM

Trying to get my hands on a Rome Reverb Rocker, or an Arbor Blacklist. All the online stores seem to be either priced way higher than the states or ridiculous on shipping.

Anyone know a good store in the Toronto (well, Pickering, but w/e) area that carries either?

I would suggest buying from a US site (evogear, sierra snowboards, etc.) and shipping to here: CBI USA | US Mailbox Rental & US Shipping Address Services then picking it up in buffalo! US prices are MUCH cheaper.

No problem! I think it's pretty hard to find good deals on Arbor boards in Canada.

I was just about to ask where I can find a place that carries NXT-FSE, since shipping to Canada can go anywhere form $50-80. The Buffalo method might work. Thanks.

yeah it's shit. went to a few local stores today to check out boards, none even had arbors...but a few had the Reverb Rocker going for like $520 (one store they had it priced the same as the Skate Banana).

Another option is if you have family in the States just send it to them and then get them to send it to you. A lot of US snowboard websites do free shipping within the US if you buy over a certain amount (usually a small amount like $50).

I ordered a bunch of stuff from different sites, including a snowboard, had it shipped to my friend's addy in the U.S. for free, then she shipped everything over to me in one package. Saves shipping fees (cheapest is USPS) and you get everything at once.
