    I NEVER allow shipments to me in Canada to be sent via any courier!! I learned this the hard way when a $900 gen RXW I bought cost me over $230 in brokerage charges!! F*#king outrageous!!

    I will only buy now if the seller will ship via Canada post affiliate (EMS, USPS, any countries national postal service) Otherwise, no deal, I'll be damned if I'll give any more money to those f*#king courier vultures...............

    If you're in Canada, take heed guys, or you'll end up paying like I did.......

    When UPS starting using the "customs brokerage fees" excuse for billing their clients unfounded service charges, I vowed never to use them again ... and haven't. Same goes for FedEX. They both have 'in-house' customs brokering departments and tack on ridiculously high service charges, in addition to any tariffs, for every International parcel they handle.

    Unfortunately, the only other option (Canada Post) has its own problems, but at least the provide Vaseline
