[quote=superstring;1127847]Customs fees (brokerage) are usually charged at the
receiving end, so the final charge could be significantly more than the (initial) shipping charge.
That's why I
never use UPS or FedEx, if I can possibly avoid it!

This is true specially when shipping to Canada. This is why all Canada orders are shipped via USPS unless the customers desires a different carrier. The only thing that its not so great its when things go wrong, a few weeks back I had a forum member orders a few supplies and was shipped via usps and it was held at customs for nearly 2 weeks and then it was lost.
