Got my Bentley CD and cabin filter today price including shipping from ECS $118....price to get it to my door $52.29 insane...$1.32 duty, $9.43 gst, $39.10 Brokerage fee, $2.74 gst on broker fee. This is the last time.

 

Ya brokerage fees are a pain in the ***. It seems that whenever something comes from the US to Canada we get nailed with all kinds of fees, but when it's in the opposite direction they get nothing. So much for free trade I guess.

 

Let me guess: UPS. UPS is known for raping and pillaging when it comes to brokerage fees. I know that ECS only uses UPS so whenever I've bought anything from them in the past I've had it sent to a friend's in the US and then re-shipped to me via USPS. No brokerage fees!

 

Good idea, although the only guy I know in the US is George Bush..........

 

I always get stuff shipped to Point Roberts if USPS isn't an option. Then again you're in Kamloops instead of Vancouver, so that really isn't an option for you...
