Jason - it does not matter where the product is manufactured. A cross border transaction using UPS brings about their requirement for brokerage paperwork and the subsequent cost.
Shipping from US to Canada
Hi everyone,
I've never bought anything over the net before, but would like to know how the US-CAN shipping works. Let's say I buy a headphone amp for 200 USD used ... will they charge me tax on this (even though it's used)? If I ship with UPS, which is the cheapest, can I tell the seller to fix the value at say, 50 USD (and hence, pay less tax), but still have UPS insure it for 200 USD? I figure this is not too outrageous since the purchase could be something with zero market value, but worth a lot for the individual.
Thank You.
