To ALL Ebayers shipping between USA- Canada...Please remember that the shipping charges given by the seller does not include Brokerage fees imposed by UPS. These iclude entry documentation on top of tax imposed by importing. Especially if the item is shipped UPS ground and is over $200.00. If the item is shipped UPS air there is no Brokerage/entry fees imposed. In my case I was quoted $54.00 shipping by the seller which sounded fair and enough for a $200.88 purchase. When item arrived to my residence (Edmonton, Alberta) there waas a further $64 in Brokerage fees I had to pay! I have no problem paying the tax (GST) but the entry documentation fees are ridiculous! So in summary...
purchase- $200.88
Sellers shipping charge- $54.00
UPS brokerage fees etc- 64.18
total------- $318.96 I might add it was shipped Dec26th and didnt arrive until Jan 8th
If seller would have shipped Postal service all I would had paid was actual shipping charge and a further 6% of purchase price..so aprox $60.00 total!! This is in my opinion just an awful gouging, So insist on using the Postal service or pay the price. I'm out aprox $50.00, that really hurts since I paid a high price for the item to begin with. For now on its USPS only for me!! Or better yet, buy locally and avoid all the hidden BS and waiting
