You guys want to hear something REALLY messed up? A 5 oz package w/DC (1 cart) costs more now to ship in the US than to Canada!!!!

1 cart (5 oz) = $1.99 in the US
1 cart (5 oz) = $1.93 to Canada

How messed up is that?!?

Anyway, they randomly sample the packages that they charge you for. You may have just got lucky. The worst is when they open the package and arbitrarily decide that the listed value is not enough, and charge you what THEY BELIEVE THE VALUE TO BE!

As for HST, we don't have anything like that in Alberta...no provincial sales taxes here. BC and Saskatchewan do though, although the exact percentages elude me at this time...think BC has a 7% PST on top of the 6% GST. ]]>

Do you guys have HST out west? HST is another 7% on top of GST which is 7%. So I pay 14% tax on all goods purchased (was 15% up until last year!) Stupid government is right! ]]>

I had to pay on a package declared at $120...came to an EXTRA $15 or so. It's not duty, it's tax. Fucking asshole government. As if 46% of my paycheque isn't enough for them...fuckers. ]]> Shipping items from the US to Canada http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=7&threadid=1127 2007-05-29T15:42:56 -05.00 Limbofunk 25 Shipping items from the US to Canada http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=7&threadid=1127 2007-05-29T15:36:46 -05.00 Limbofunk 25 ~~NGD ]]>
