Buying used from Canada


Hi, if you are based in USA and you buy used hifi from Canada do you get taxed on it when it arrives?  Talking about $2000ish.  Or if you use fed-ex will it come straight through?  Thanks for your time

Hard to answer what the fees could be. It appears everyone has different experiences. As of today, it could be one number in the morning and flips to another number by the afternoon. These are very difficult times for  businesses of any sort. Economies and businesses thrives with predictability. In times of in unpredictability things do not go well.

Common business sense. It’s how the economy has worked for hundreds of years. Maybe more.

As for the question of fees of buying from Canada, I would not worry for i would go for it. Life is too short to worry about it. This is a one off transaction.  Go with the flow. Odds are you may get a free pass. If you had folks on your payroll, then I would worry.

And for those that are not happy with my comments, my question to you is. How many people do you have on your payroll?  And if you do have people on the payroll, are you tied to the global economy?  I live in this environment everyday.

@jasonbourne71 While I think your off the mark many times, you got this one dead on.

 

In the past hours the tariff for Canadian goods went up to 35%. Could change by midday tomorrow though. Or maybe Sunday night. Hold on for the ride.
