You need a friend in NY to ship stuff to once a year, then have him deliver to FCP at Xmas when your order your replacements.scot850 wrote: ↑18 Aug 2022, 22:58 That is also what I do, we just don't get the on-line additional discounts like they seem to get in the US. I have used several on line Volvo dealers in Canada for genuine parts for the reasons you also do. Those are just 2 I have used. Volvo of Victoria had extra discounts when they first start selling on line a few months ago. I did actually lie about the not getting a sale on parts in Canada. I forgot Volvo of Toronto had a sale back in about February I think.
I like FCP for their range of parts including alternates, as with IPD too. Sometimes they are worth getting stuff from if you can stomach the shipping costs. FCP's warranty is pointless to me as you have to ship the parts back for replacements, although they did once tell me not to bother as it cost more to ship back than for new parts to be sent.
I have picked up parts from Germany, Sweden, Australia and more over the years when there is hard to find stuff or cheaper than available here.

That would be good. Downside is as Blacklab mentioned, often the parts direct from the on-line dealer sales are cheaper than they are from the US, and that is not including shipping! Add to the bonus that we don't have cross border charges and over a certain amount (around $75 CDN) there is also free shipping within Canada.
There are cases like door actuators where the price in the US is the same number as in CDN$, or a saving of about a 1/4 of the price!
Maybe you should come north and stock up on parts!

As the clocked ticked over to midnight on Cyber Monday, the usparts.volvocars.com sale increased from 15% to 20%. That means that with the stacked 10% in-store pickup discount, you're now getting 28% off hard to find and authentic Volvo parts.
I've found that some old obscure parts, likely Genuine Classic Parts coming from gcp.se, are not eligible for the 15-20% off discount. Still, they get the 10% in-store pickup.
