Porsche engine stand adapter in Canada?

I just dropped the engine and trans out of my 95 993 and will need the adapter to support my engine on an engine stand. The adapter from Pelican parts looks fantastic and I will order one - one problem shipping and customs. Has anyone ordered this part and have there been any issues?
I'm wondering if anyone has a contact in Buffalo where I could drive to and pick-up the part.

Ship it to the UPS Store in Buffalo, drive down and pick it up. If you need a bunch of other stuff get it all shipped at once to make it worth your time. Saves on shipping and sometimes outrageous brokerage fees.

+1

UPS Store charge $5 per Box and $3 for an envelope. You will not pay any duty (never did in over 50 trip). All you will pay is the HST and depending of the cost and are busy they are you might be told "have a good day" (happened 100% of time in Ogdensburg if you are around $125. Happened 100% of the time in Niagara if you are around $400).

The bonus is to make sure that you will be almost empty and fill the tank at about $0.25 a liters cheaper. Pays for my trip.

Thank-you

The UPS store in Buffalo will be getting some business from me in the near future. Thanks to all who spent the time replying.
