Sucks to be a panther fan when.....

by Pussy Cats on Nov 22, 2011 11:55 PM EST

You live in Victoria B.C. right next to Vancouver and the only merchandise around is Canuck gear. Nowhere sells ANYTHING panther related. I have been on eBay and found so many things i want, but no luck as they don't ship to Canada. Its hard to support a Florida based team on the west coast of Canada!! Grrrrrr........ On a plus side its great to be a panther fan when they are 2nd in the NHL :)

NHL.com shouldn’t have any issues shipping to Canada; try them yet? Best selection in any case :)

NHL.com is pretty reliable but the Panthers gear has to ship from the states meaning we have to pay extra border charges. For a $130 jersey the border charge could be $60-70.

Jersey City in Canada advertised that they have the jerseys but I contacted them and they said that Reebok actually has no determined date as to when they’ll send stock.

I’ll probably just end up eating the border fee.

Seriously? At this time of the year? Lame.

Simple solution? Have the package sent to a UPS or FedEx store just over the border. Then, make a day-long holiday shopping trip.

Make a friend in Seattle and have stuff shipped to them then drive down and pick it up. That’s what a lot of my customers do.

A lil thunder and a lil lightning is what the Cats are going to bring this year.

I hear ya

In Saskatoon they have EVERY teams jersey and other team related stuff it seems except Panther stuff. There is one or two red jerseys stuffed behind the Blue Jacket ones at the Olympian Sports though.

I ended up ordering a few things from NHL’s Canada store and it came VERY fast…. didnt think that the shipping and other fees were too terrible either.

Still holding out on the jersey (Really thinking I am getting a Red Markstrom) but gonna wait till after Christmas and save a few dollars up for it.

Same Problem Here

I live in Lethbridge for school but I am from Red Deer, never seen any panther gear in any of the jersey city shops, so someone might have to eat that border fee for my xmas prezzie if you know what i mean? :P
