Re: Source for Depron

Yuck - $75. Courier speak for 'dimensioned weight'

$199 (including shipping) for 40 sheets of 3mm x 31.4" x 24.4" white Depron. That's $5USD per sheet. Not cheap but, not crazy expensive if you wanted to split a box with someone.

Re: Source for Depron

I think he's the only one who's doing it in North America and he does specifically have a package for Canadians.

Really, it's not a bad price. Shipping to and from the US is ridiculous. I had to ship some warranty stuff back to Horizon last week and it had smaller dimensions than their depron package and it was over $100.

I wanted to get a jet airframe shipped from the UK from a vendor there, for myself, and the shipping with DHL was nearly $1000 CDN. It has me seriously rethinking that purchase. It's going to be EDF and the power system is less than the cost of shipping, lol.

Re: Source for Depron

I was at the local dollar store couple of days ago, and they had couple of small sheets on the shelf, apparently from a closed art supply store, so this might be another source for the depron.

I just looked at this site and it said that 14 sheets of 3mm was $40US with free shipping to Canada. Sounds like a good deal to me
