Just a point of information from somebody that imports a lot of stuff from the US.

The rapists at UPS charge $30 as a brokerage fee, NOT duty (You probably paid $30 brokerage fee, $9 tax and NO duty). The $30 is on the first $250 declared value of the parcel. After that it's like an extra $30 for every $250 increment.

Items shipped by mail (US Post Airmail or Global EMS) there is a $7.50 charge, period. No matter how much it is.

I cannot stress this enough. NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER import stuff from the US using UPS. Either get them to ship it by US Post, DHL or Fedex.

If you go UPS you may as well buy it in Canada. :angry:

TEAM PITA: Don't settle for a wannabe, only accept the real deal.
