Thank you I appreciate that! Thats a huge bummer, I didn’t realize it was difficult in Canada too. This one I did buy directly from them but I’ve bought too many second hand lol. If you haven’t built any of the retail versions I do highly highly recommend them though! - ThreadSky

PB doesn't ship to Canada. So we often need to use a third party shipping service to get them. So additional fees + import taxes.

I see people in the US complain about PB and I'm like "I wish I had it that easy."

My only complaint with it is that I only got into this hobby last year so I missed out on a ton of really cool PB kits lol.

I didn’t realize that, that’s a huge pain in the ass! I feel like there’s still a ton of fans in Canada so it really sucks that they’d intentionally avoid that market

We had a PB in Canada but it closed in like 2019 "temporarily." Yeah, doubt we will ever see it again, unless they get worried about tariffs and want to bring more product into Canada directly.

Yeah I only got into it last year myself. (And then didn't build for nearly a year.)

That’s definitely a shame! Yeah if it’s been 5 years, it’s probably pretty unlikely to come back at this point unfortunately.

I’m sure I’ll have to take a break at some point but I am not there yet lol
