If I remember right its over a certain amount in Value..I think its $400 dollars..( though I could be wrong ) ..I have sold tubes and or wires to Canada and never had any issue of extra fees at all...But there values were under $200 each..When I went to the Post Office I had to sign a card and I had to estimate the Value of the item being shipped....
Selling to Canadians
I've read about nightmares selling equipment to our neighbors north of the border and would like to have some guidance on how best to handle such a transaction. Is there an exchange rate issue? Also, what's the best way to ship (cables) -- and how are the duties handled? Is it a percentage of the sale price and, if so, do they go by the price new or the resale price? Thanks a lot for your help.
