I wonder how they fit these in my mail box ?
Anyway - it is not really mail order other than you order it online and they ship the kit to your address. These are built in Quebec and ship in North America. A few people I know have ordered these and are very happy with the end product.

The shell in most cases. You have to finish everything out or hire someone to do it. The total costs depending on if you do it or hire someone else will end up being $120k-$175k. Or more depending on your finishes.
