I just bought a memory stick for my game cube for 12 $ on ebay . Next thing I know when it get here I have to pay 40 $ cnd of border fees ... This memory stick would have costed me like 30 $ in a store . What the fuck is the problem with the system ... 40 $ for a 12 $ item ... fucked up

Sounds like UPS to me.

Why do people still ship things to Canada via UPS? You think it'd be common knowledge by now.

Free medical care is expensive you know. :glugglug

Not the kind they give you in canada...

The taxes from smoking and gas covers 10 times what health care costs the government..

They make quite a good profit from it actually.

What this guy got was, ripped off by ups , and he could file for a refund through the customs agency.

I have had it happen before..

I once was had brought to much whisky across the border ( flying ) and he said , you going to have to leave that bottle behind or pay $20 duty on the bottle, so me and a friend guzzled the bottle and left him the empty bottle.
