Jason Harris 31 Report post Posted August 27, 2005 Most likely you were hit up for $30 for UPS or Fed Ex to act as your broker, plus there's a duty on sticks coming into Canada that are made in certain countries.Next time, insist on USPS. The shipping will be slightly higher but there aren't brokerage fees. The duty would be the same either way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think you're correct. However, insurance is available on certain services. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
