On a $200.00 radio? Doesn't make sense. I bought one watch from
Canada for $250.00 and the customs broker fee was around $30.00 from
UPS. Call them...I think they made a mistake.

I bought a radio for $215 from someone in canada a few weeks ago and
today I
got a bill from the carrier (purolator) company.

the main items we

estimated customs $15
brokerage fee $18
surety bond fee $30
disbursement of funds $5
FCC filing $15

total was $85 on a $215 radio


for those that have experience with this matter, or actually KNOW
what they
are talking about, I have some questions.

Am I being taken for a ride ?
I didn't sign anything so why should I pay over $50 in fees to these
crumbs
?
Is there a way to fight this ?

thanks
