Canadian source for a 600 series inverter (10L1719)?

Anyone know where I can source a 10L1719 in Canada? Most of the EBayers will not ship to Canada or charge horrendous amounts for shipping this $10 part. Thanks.

The nature of inexpensive items on eBay is that often the cost of shipping exceeds the cost of the item itself. (I suspect that for some sellers the $10 shipping fee generates more profit than the item itself.)

Here's a guy in Vancouver http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... eName=WDVW

And here's a US seller that will ship to the GWN http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... eName=WDVW

Others may ship north too if the item is small (it is) and you ask first. With a value under CA$20 the seller only needs to put a green customs sticker on the outside and there's no GST or PST payable by you. Explain that to the seller, ask them to send it in a padded bag by USPS and hope they don't gouge you too badly on the shipping.
