Duties arnt that bad.. They charge GST and PST and then a small brokerage fee. I only payed 38 bucks on 275worth of stuff

Are you sure thats right? I once paid $78 on a $300 order... It all depends on who they ship it with tho. If they ship it with UPS, your screwed. There brokerage fees are through the roof (about $50 for a package worth that much).

jenson covers the duty/brokerage fees in their $26 shipping fee...the time i ordered from pricepoint they didn;t and i got a nice bill in the mail...wasn't much but still

Jenson covers brokerage fees, not duties. They are two different things. Brokerage fees are a charge from the post office while duties are at customs. Me and my friend both looked into this ALOT before we found a place in the states to ship to.

"You will not be responsible for brokerage, duties, or taxes upon delivery"

Wow I never knew jenson covered all of them. So you've had to pay nothing when the package arrives at your door?

you go to a place that does money order's like a post office or variety store. You pay them however much your order is and they make a cheque to the person your paying and then it gets mailed to them.
