The USPS was $ 55 to send and UPS was $ 39 , of course I went with the UPS.
When the package was delivered the buyer had to pay a COD charge of 40 for handling and tax to get his package.
If I had used the USPS would they also charged that amount ? or only tax ?
It must be very costly to import things into Canada , I have bought thousands of dollars in MC parts and gear from Germany and Japan and never paid any import duty.
Peter or others : what is the scoop ?
John, as you know, Canada is located on top of the US, like a penthouse apartament, therefore everything here is more expensive...the only thing we have cheaper here is medical/hospital ......and free snow
