HS Codes ? - any advice or sources, experts ?

[Shane Presley]

Hey - I'm trying to ship out a Jands HOG 500 that I've sold to a guy in Australia (I'm in Canada). Anybody have any idea what the HS code would be for something like that. I've tried all the usual areas - google, canada post, and even the logistics guy here at my day job. If anyone would know I'd appreciate some info, or maybe even where to look.

I used this before without issue:

8531 electric sound or visual signaling apparatus

I find it somewhat amusing that an australian product in Ottawa is being sold back to Oz....

There are not many australian audio products - rode & jands would have to be the two leading brands.

I was thinking the same thing, and wondering why he couldn't have sourced it cheaper there... I was also wondering if it would be subject to duties etc, since it is returning to the source of mfg. I guess he'll find out...
