I could use a little help with your experiences with the duty and fees that get charged on stuff purchased from USA and shipped into Canada.
In theory, there's a de minimimis duty cutoff on items into Canada via courier (mail, UPS, etc) of $150. So below that amount, only GST/PST should be charged, not the extra 18% duty on my particular item. But I've had customers get dinged for duty on amounts less than that via USPS/Canada Post shipping. UPS hits people with crazy fees, so I avoid that. FedEx is generally a train wreck, so I avoid that, too.
What have you all found in terms of getting charged with duty? Any tips for avoiding fees that you shouldn't be charged?
Thanks!
