They're great. I've had no complaint with them, i've ordered from them 2 or 3 times. They have the whole solarbotics catalog plus the picaxe stuff.

Hmm, they seem to be a part of solarbotics, which is the company I already order through.

C'mon folks,

Canada is just like the US but with a little accent and hockey, right? Whatever- Someone order from these folks and tell us how it went. It's gotta be better than shipping over the pond especially when the pound is kicking the dollar's ass right now.

Chris,

Let's not show off the quality the US / Massachussetts education system.

The last time I looked Canada was not one of the 50 states. Yes, HVWtech is in Alberta CANADA.

HVWTech does have an excellent range of PICAXE stuff. 

There is usually a slight delay with shipping to the USA due to customs clearance.

TANSTAAFL!

From the HVWtech website you have little if any indication that it is from canada.
