[ROVERNET - UK] International Shipping Question

[James Dean]

Eric: I thank you for that tip. That simple two lines of text , and 
classification should be written down by anyone shipping  or driving into 
Canada. I will frame it on my wall!  No one needs to dread Canadian customs 
paperwork; it is simply one form, easy to fill out. There is a space on the 
form to fill in this classification, so no one should have to sing the 
"Smuggler's Blues-Flying in from Los Angelees, bringing in a couple of 
wings- don't touch my bags, if you please, Mr Customs man,", for bringing in 
or shipping good honest old Rover parts. Thanks again, James Dean.
