Remember the Berg shift kit List order deal ?  Well, Volksies, I just 
received mine today.  April 20, 2001 !  It was ordered by phone on February 
07 and paid with a Visa card.  Box had postmark of February 08, so it got 
sent promptly.  Seems like the US and Canadian postal services routed by way 
of China on canoe or what ?
       Final cost: $98.86 CND !  Yikes you say !  Well, just think what I'm 
saying..........more that yikes !  Breakdown goes like this for those of you 
who are interested in this kind of trivia...........>
       Shift kit w/extension----------$36.08 USD
       Postal delivery ---------------------5.00 
       Freight ------------------------------14.35
       Total -------------------------------- 55.43 USD  = $85.40 CND charged 
to my Visa
       Federal sales tax (GST) ------------------------------3.95
       Provincial sales tax (PST) ---------------------------4.51
       Canada post handling fee --------------------------5.00

       Grandiose total ---------------------------------------$98.86 CND

       100 bucks to shift the Vanagon easier.  Well, it better be good or I 
will really be ripped !  Ya gotta love this "Hobby" ?  Ha !  And yes I know 
it's still Friday but this is no joke.  Nough said !
       

Cheers�
