Hello all,
what are some (good) sources for Canadians to get batteries?
I have ordered some from Banggood - they never arrived, got a refund.
Many US sellers sell to Canada, but shipping is very often super expensive.
There are some local sources (vape stores for example) - I got some 18650 and 18350 locally, but the price is high.
So: any good ideas for reasonably prices sources for Canadians?
Thank you for your suggestions!
Try ru.nkon.nl. This is the international store of nkon.nl (no Euro VAT to pay).
Reputable, decent pricing. Shipping cost is also reasonable when you buy a few cells.
Packaging can be improved (simple shrink-wrap inside a bubble mailer) and they take a few days to ship. Actual shipping to Canada is relatively fast though.
Don’t know about up there, but Amazon.ca should be a good bet?

I tried to order from nkon.nl, but the only shipping option was Fedex with a cost that twice the cost of the four cells I was looking for?
Can you suggest other options for shipping that I missed?
Thanks in advance.
Last shipment was Swiss post. Shipping was 5.89 euro for 6 cells.
But you are right, I just tried again and only option now is 30 euro shipping with FEDEX.
My next suggestion would be our own Richard (Mountain Electronics in Utah).
There are no reasonably priced Canadian based vendors.
Brick and mortar vape stores and online Canadian e-tailers like Canvape are pretty much all there is.
Mountain is good for us Canadians. I have used them a few times and will continue to use them without question or hesitation.
Sounds like a business opportunity for a keen Canadian!
