this is useful info !
thanks ! "RHF" wrote in message oups.com... MM, . Blame it on the Canadian Seller. . For 'used' electronic equipment that are bought at Auction. There is no US Customs Duty for items costing less than $800. However, if the Canadian Seller does not specifically Declare (Write Down) that the item is 'used' electronic equipment; or Declares that the the Item is NEW Electronic Equipment then you, the Buyer, are stuck with paying the Bill for their mistake. . jm2cw ~ RHF . . = = = mike maghakian wrote: 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 |
