Quote:Is the handling fee still $5? I havent bought anything from the US for a while now. I'd much rather pay the $5 handling fee from Canada Customs than the arbitrary fees that UPS or FedEx will charge for doing the same thing. I like how Canada Customs actually breaks down the fees so you know what you're paying, rather than with other couriers who just send you a bill and expect you to pay whatever they tell you.I think it varies with the value of the goods. I import a lot of stuff and I've seen Canada Post handling fees ranging from $5 to $14 - but as you say, still a lot less than the brokerage fees that UPS charges.
