Lifetime trailer @ costco

[18seeds]

Damn Costco!!!
So, being a Costco member based in Canada I cannot order ANYTHING off of Costco.com even if I had it shipped to a U.S. address.
They will only accept orders from US-based members, it sounds like the membership numbers are different, and the computer system will not allow a Can. member's number in the system.
I have an executive membership, I even have a freaking American Express Costco card, and I STILL can't order anytrhing off of Costco.com!!!!!

Their solution from customer service was for me to have a friend in the US order the item and I could pay them back. That's a bit tricky with a $3500 item...

i can order the trailer for you and i'll keep it attached to my truck so it never leaves my side

Do you live in Montana or anywhere else in the northwest close to the Canadian border? <--- that's what I really need!

Just drive down there (with a Canadian Trailer Plate).
Buy one... drive back.

That's just it YOU CAN'T!
You can only order the stuff off of Costco.com if you have an American resident Costco membership. To get one of those you'd have to have an address in the U.S., and obviously some form of proof of that address...
If you have a US membership, then you can order off of the website and have it shipped anywhere in the continental US.
They have really screwed up rules, I spent about 30 minutes talking to a supervisor at the Kalispel MT store (closest to me) as well as Costco 1-800 customer service department.

Especially if you have no friends.



Do you know anyone close the boarder that they could ship to and be reasonably close for you to drive down and pick it up?

PM me if you need my help in ordering it for you.

I actually have family in Michigan that I just emailed this morning to see if they have Costco memberships.
If they do, I can send them a cheque for the full amount of the trailer and feel reasonably confident that they won't take the money and run. lol

Good point cause I was already planning a Baja trip on your dime.

Just kidding, the good thing about this community is there are lots of trustworthy folks that would be happy to help.

I wonder if a 1/2 in thick sheet of plywood could be mounted on top and a motorcycle wheel chock mounted so a m/c could be carried up top.

Just ordered this Lifetime tent trailer through Costco (mini jumping jack). It came to just under $3200 with tax. They are offering it for $2999 right now and that includes shipping. It looks like it's a complete assembly though so that should be a fun project. Can't wait to get out and use this.
