Tumblers: where to buy in Canada?

I'd really love to buy a tumbler, but so far all I've found are U.S. websites (which don't list shipping rates to Canada). Does anyone know where to buy a tumbler in Canada (retail or online)?

Also, I'm adding a poll to find out which ones are the best!

Thanks!

Did you look at lacy tools?

Personally, I bought one from the US, Harbour Freight, I had my dh pick it up for me since he's in the US every week. Ive been using it since about Christmas time and other than a belt blowing (which I crazy glued back together...lol) its been working just fine for me.

Brenda, thanks for your message. My local bead store actually told me about Lacy's just the other day; I wasn't aware of them before and wow, do they ever have a lot of stuff! Their prices seem high, though; and when you look at buying from the States and shipping it here, the price is almost the same as if I buy from Lacy's. Weird.

However, you made an excellent suggestion about having someone pick up one in the States; my husband is going to Chicago in a few weeks! That might work out best for me.

You have beautiful jewellery, by the way!

Unfortunately, I find that with a lot of things, probably they import from the US to begin with so have to do a markup on it that covers fees etc...

thanks! you have lovely jewellery as well...

Ironically (since he rarely works in Canada) my dh is in Toronto this week...I almost went with him but I decided not to, I have too many projects on the go right now!

I purchased mine at Mountain Gems in Burnaby, BC. It's a Lortone.

Thanks! I've checked out their website and emailed a request for shipping costs to Ontario. I'd never heard of them before; glad to find a new place!
