Rob,
No problem, I'm glad I could help. However, I did not receive your PM with the shipping info. Could you re-send it so I can work on the shipping quote. Thanks.

Prefair
Gentlemen if you need something in particular at Prefair such as the boxes you mentionned please ask to speak to the owner Mr Cote. I have been dealing with him for years and he is as schrew a businessman as they come. He knows where everything is in the store and the price of the item, believe me I have been to Prefair 40 -50 times and have tried to to asked for a price on a certain item and he has always answered the same. Prefair will ship to Manitoba, no problem, he ships tires to the US so boxes to Manitoba is no problem. To those who go to Prefair, ask for Jacques and tell him you would like to see the CMP in the yard, yes there is one and a CMP expert should look at it to see if it could be of value to anyone.
The Prefair yard is the place to find a treasure, you could spend days looking through the spare parts trailers and vans in the yard, unfortunately you will be escorted with no free wandering. Too many things have disappeared. Also if you are looking for something in particular don't be afraid to ask Mr Cote, Jacques or Bruno. I like to haggle over price and that is one very hard place to do that, if you see an item you want you will probably end up paying the asking price. He has a lot of weird stuff, next time you enter the store just as you get to the aisle look right and you will see some brown bars in a box, absolutely the greatest natural handsoap. .25 cents a chunk. At prefair take your time and dig around. Gilles

SAIL now PREFAIR
I discovered it a while ago. The yard is a mess, but you're right about finding stuff. Jean Baptiste Cote is a businessman. He knows his stuff and will make a deal. If you give him a list of what you need, he'll be ready for you. His English is not very good, but he knows the meaning of money.

JB had a collection of artillery shells (among other things!) that he had gathered in one of the trailers. It was stolen. Now the yard is escort only.
