As I said in an earlier comment, I don't doubt that people who use a credit card to order products from Good eReader will eventually get their order. I would be very much surprised if they didn't.
But do you really want to "vouch" for a company that employs questionable business practices such as not being up front about where the products they are selling are shipping from?
Luckily for you, your device arrived quickly and the customs which you had to pay didn't amount to much more than the Canadian tax which you would have had to pay were you able to purchase the product in Canada. But that might not be true for everyone.
And then there is the fact that Good eReader still hasn't fulfilled all the orders from their shuttered Indiegogo campaign despite Michael Kozlowski having boasted about selling thousands of the devices. As recently as 15 days ago, former backers were still posting on the campaign page to complain that they haven't received a device or a refund. Only bona fide backers can post comments on that page.

Are these really people you would "vouch" for? Are these really people who deserve to have business sent their way?
Personally, I'd rather pay extra or do without than support such unscrupulous individuals. But each to their own...
