Matthew, I'm wondering what the 4 jumpers are for?
Looking forward to trying this out!

Well, the inclusion of RollerBall (loose like Coleco provided games with their special controllers, but preferrably CiB) pretty much seals the deal for me. That "nut" of a shipping charge is a tough one to swallow, but maybe these can be driven down to a remote area of the border and passed on to someone in the States to handle shipping!!!
Put me down for a left hander controller like in the pics and video... joystick on the left, buttons on the right.

I don't live that far from the Ambassador bridge linking Detroit and Windsor. I can get a sweet shipping deal via UPS. I'm just curious if a Canadian can cross the bridge into Detroit without being inspected.
It's not a good idea to cheat the border patrol, at least too much.
From another site, speaking of importing from USA to Canada (but I'm sure the other way around isn't any more fun):
Customs has a new zero tolerance policy. Misdeclaring goods imposes a penalty of $1000 for the first offence, $5000 for second, $25,000 for the third. (for commercial), personal, they will assign you a fine, plus double duty and taxes, plus black list you everytime you come over the border you will get pulled over.
To my knowledge that is only going to Canada not From Canada to the US. Luckily the US doesn't go all crazy with customs fees(in fact we have no custom fees), will at least not yet
Things change here minute by minute with the flakes we have in the office Could be... with free trade for NA made items (in the least), it's usually just the sales tax we have to pay... what's the "inspection" Yurkie is speaking of, then?
edit: here's some information. After a quick read/skim, it doesn't look too difficult for totals under $2000.
