Does HTG sell to CANADA?

[Guest]

Im trying to buy a light, i live in canada and they only have a sign up sheet for the U.S., any inputs? If they dont can someone please send me to a good cheap canadian seller's website. Looking for a T-5 and a 400W MH/HPS conversion lamp.

Thanks

I'm pretty sure there is some kind of tariff or tax put onto fixtures entering KKKanada. so to answer your question, I don't think they do. Why not email them and ask, eh?

yah i sent them an email...
OK so im guessing by bnow, its a no.
Is there another good cheap website? If i were to just goto a store, IRL, id end up paying about 450 for a shitty 400W HPS.. but i want an MH/HPS light, to go along with a T-5 system im looking for(2ft 8 bulbs)

be careful with them, i have gotten two lights from them and seen 2 friends purchase their lights. Often times, the saying what you pay for is what you get comes to mind when I think about htg. I just installed my 2nd 400w from them, and it doesn't have the lightbulb centered (2 inches closer to one side than the other), they do a horrible job making these things. Also, they burn out bulbs really fast because that's exactly what 140 dollers worth gets you. I wish I had gotten a nice 600w instead of these two crappy lights.

I've also bought two 400's from them and have just the opposite opinion of them. I haven't experienced either the bulb miscentering or the bulbs being quick to burn out.

I also have had a friend who kept having bulbs repeatidly burn out. One of mine did as well, within 3 weeks of plugging it in. Its much better to get a different ballast. They gave me a backup bulb and its worn out with less than 3-4 months of use pretty much, this bulb is even nicer than the original one they gave me. To each his own I guess then.

They do not sell to Canada, I have also emailed them asking the same question and did not get a relpy either, BGH just like SB says... they are getting my business. When you order from BGH do it over the phone if you can and ask for it to be shipped USPS, this will save you a crap load of money over those UPS or Fedex pirates. And there are no tariffs applied at the boarder, it's a crap shoot as to taxes too, more often then not I never get taxed on anything I order from the states.

BTW Wunderkind... kkkanada??? <--- WTF??? PM me if you care to respond.

Y dont you just buy from a local canadian hydro store.
By the time you get the 'good deal' your looking for, you will pay in taxes and duties.

Not so much that, it is teh shipping that will kill ya

I live in Canada, I normally only but from hydro shops, for a couple reasons, 1, if something happens I can get a replacement that day, 2, I know they sell extreme quality.

I looked online at many places, including ebay for new stuff, and by the time you added shipping, it was more than what I got it for at the hydro shop

But you can try Bustan.ca
or http://www.canadianwholesalehydroponics.com/

PS
I just bought a computer about 4 months ago and it uses 800watts, plus i have 3 other computers inthe house always being used, so another "computer" shouldnt have any effect on the bill.
