Make sure it is shipped USPS and not fedex or UPS as the brokerage fees will kill you and they never miss charging you everything they can!
When shipped USPS, I dont think there has ever been anything owed besides gst and pst, and often there is nothing owed, it just shows up at the door
Thanks Kenneth!
I've just been a little "gun shy" about duties since my wife bought a bathing suit from china and the duties and taxes were like 5 times the price of the suit. It wasn't a big deal but you know. I'm cheap.
Also thank you to everyone who chimed in to answer and clarify my concerns. I pulled the trigger last night (and luckily I'm cheap so I went with the USPS option). so sleepless nights until they get here!!
And an extra shoutout to Mr Hewitt. Been going through all the old post and came across this quote this morning.
"I believe you could put a homo neanderthalensis in front of a safe and he will spin the dial."
Martin, You clearly have an understanding of the human condition!
Cheers!
