import duty sending used gear from Canada to USA

Duty calculator .com stated no duty applied to used gear purchased in Canada and shipped to USA. I purchased used gear from someone in Canada and having it shipped. The unit was manufactured in South Korea.

Has anyone had recent fees charged to a similar purchase? What is the safest, most efficient and least likely to be assessed duty or other fees?

Thank you.

I have bought several items here and from Canuckaudiomart.
One was a Simaudio integrated (made in Canada) another was Emotiva amp made in USA. One was shipped from Montreal the other Alberta. Both came via FEDEX no extra fees or duty. Just like buying from a USA seller as far as I could tell. Received both in three or four days.
Hope this helps.
