Fan SHIM available in Canada?

[Beorn_Bear]

I am going to order a Raspberry Pi 4 with 4 GB RAM. Unfortunately, the two main providers in Canada do not sell the Fan SHIM for the Raspberry Pi. Does anyone have any suggestions?! Any advise would be much appreciated.

Elmwood Electronics is a Pimoroni reseller. They're out of stock of the Fan SHIM right now, but you can pre-order/query when they get them back in stock. Although not (yet) and official reseller in Canada, they do have Raspberry Pi 4 Model Bs.

NB: I used to work for Elmwood. I'm still friends with Craig, the owner. I don't get any discount there.

Pimoroni ship to Canada.

Adafruit put a video on YouTube yesterday saying they have some.

They absolutely do, but the customs fees can be less than fun. Elmwood ships from Toronto, so there's none of that variability.

It costs me ~10 bucks Canadian for International Standard (5 - 10 business days). If I want it quick by currier yeah, it will cost me, I'm to cheap for that though. I was going with the Royal Mail tracked and signed for about the same price, it took a lot longer to get to me that way though, and it wasn't tracked in Canada anyway.
If I go by International Standard, it just shows up in the mail. No extra fees etc. They just put it in my mail box or hand it to me at the door.
