Ordering from Evike.com

Hi, i'm kind of new to the sport, and I was wondering. Would Canadian customs seize my shipment of an Emerson Tactical Helmet? If they would, does anyone know where to get one on a Canadian site?

Thanks in advance

Search evike on here, if they actually send it it should cross no problem.
Better option is to find another retailer with a better reputation

Customs won't seize it, it's not restricted. I know of a site in Canada that sells them but I can't give the name since they sell guns as well. A google search should yield some results if your google foo is up to par.

As for Evike that is one of the last places I would buy from, like J-man said a search will tell you why. You could always order from AirsoftPark since they have free international shipping.

For what it's worth, I've done many orders from Evike with absolutely no problems and my anecdote is up-to-date. There's a lot of skepticism towards Evike on this forum, probably warranted, but there are plenty of us out there who have never had a single problem. It's possible a lot of the bad experiences are now a thing of the past. I've also found their sales support to be easy to contact.

Thanks guys, I think that i'll search for a Canadian site, rather than take the chance of wasting 70$+.

Assuming this is the helmet your looking for, Airsoft Park sells them. Free shipping as well (extra $2-3 for tracking/insurance)

Yes, AirsoftPark is great for Emerson helmets, or any gear in general. You'll get it within two weeks and no extra costs on you.

I've done evike once, and never again. The sheer amount of aggravation experienced in dealing with them has yet to be surpassed in my many other transactions with online retailers - airsoft, or for other goods.

Airsoftpark on the other hand, can't say good enough things about them, in my recent experiences. Like ZackTheRipperC says, good-priced gear, generally good quality gear, and the shipping is pretty much covered. Three prompt, large-ish deliveries in the past two months, 1 issue that they've actively worked with me to rectify, and nothing but great and prompt communications and updates.

That has nothing to do with the retailer. It's the postal service you use or the CBSA if it's Canada Post.
