Jim Munro Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 I am looking for a Wheatstone English Tenor-Treble. Preferably in North America somewhere so as to avoid horrid import duties and taxes but anything considered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim: I'm no expert but I don't think there are import duties on concertinas being brought into Canada. I fought the Canada Border Services Agency over this and won. The regulations are posted on their website. Accordions on the other hand are not duty free, which is as it should be. No mention is made of melodeons. GST is imposed unfortunately, but it's what - 6%? Good luck with your search, Donald Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Munro Posted December 17, 2006 Author Share Posted December 17, 2006 Donald-this could be true at this point. However about five years ago I was forced to pay PST and GST which at he time was 14%. Adding considerable heft to the cost of an already expensive venture. But thanks for the reply- I shall check it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
