Is there anything they need to do specially? A guy from toronto came over the border and said something about having to pay 5% or something? What else should I/he know? is it likely hes going to be hassled?
thanks
Ya I’d say he will, unless he’s driving it over and its all insured and eveything he can say he went there to see a friend or something. I had a couple boxes of neon lights in my back seat and got pulled to the side for it.
He said that he cant bring “that much” cash over the border without being hassled?, anybody know when it becomes an issue carrying cash over?
IIRC you need to fill out a form for anything over $10K.
I was selling them?
I even made profit.
It was more like whole backseat and trunk full, probably why lol.
I brought a motor back with no receipt or paperwork, yes I’m an idiot, and I was just waived through. Needless to say I was shocked.
it’s not much of a hassle. ppl do it all the time.
Drive it over there, deposit money and have a friend bring you back?
Its not registered or insured anymore… he said he has to pay some percentage of the cost of the vehicle at the border? or maybe at registration? i know nothing of this, nor do I care, but he used that to factor into the price, and id like to know the truth as to if its really the case, thats all
.
Fuck that, he’s the one shopping across the border. Tell him if he doesn’t want to pay up, you’ll find someone here in the states that will buy the bike withouth dealing with that kind of shit. So that should def not affect the cost of the bike.
^This is most certainly the guy to listen to about this matter.
good info… thanks… He’s going to wire the money into my bank account… life is good 
What are the rules nowadays? I am going to buy a bumper in Toronto tomorrow for $250, he is writing me a receipt for $100. Need to fill anything out ahead of time?
Last time I worked the land border we gave zero shits about low dollar used parts for personal use.

wtf? I am buying a bumper not the car attached to it
JJ clearly didnt read the whole thread.
I doubt he even noticed that the OP was from 4/08.
like i said dont sweat it. youll skate through just fine.
I once brought back 20K in casino winnings (of my buddy) in my pocket. They stopped him for the Cuban cigars they comped him sitting in the cup holder. Never knew about the cash.
Wow that’s a dumb risk for literally nothing. All you have to do is declare it and fill out the single page FINCEN 105 form. Instead he risked losing it all and both of you ending up with serious charges.
