Ok so I just had an interesting chat with a newegg live chat member, and got quite a bit of information out of him

Here is a transcript of the chat...

Quote:
Thank you for contacting Newegg. My name is Stephen. How may I assist you today?

Kevin: I am wondering about newegg.ca ... I see lots of people who have accounts there and are already using the site, yet I still cannot access anything except the 'coming soon page' how do I get an account?

Stephen: We do apologize for the confusion. However those people have test accounts as the main release of the site will be in October. Please check back next month as it will be open to the public in Canada by then.

Kevin: Can I have a test accout

Kevin: pleeeease

Stephen: Unfortunately, those are not available to the rest of Canada.

Kevin: Aw

Kevin: Ok well one more question then..

Kevin: There is a lot of speculation concerning exactly *where* newegg.ca will be shipping its products from.. Will newegg.ca use a Canadian warehouse and therefore ship out of Canada, or will all products still be shipped from the USA

Stephen: We do not have any facilities in Canada so all orders will be shipped from our warehouses in the US.

Kevin: As a result from this, will Canadian consumers be charged import taxes on items purchased via newegg.ca ? Or has newegg entered into a Trade Agreement with the Canadian officials to prevent 'surprise' charges?

Kevin: hello?

Stephen: One moment, please.

Stephen: Thank you for holding. With all the items that are listed on Newegg.ca, the import taxes are pre added to the prices of the items. You would not get any additional taxes or fee tacked on with the order.

Kevin: So all items would arrive to my door and I wouldnt have any extra at the door fees?

Stephen: Not at all. What you pay will all be on the website. You would not be charged anything once it is delivered.

Kevin: Perfect. Thanks a bunch. Have a nice day
