    You should have asked them if they've ever
    heard of "NAFTA" -ie - the 'North American
    Free Trade Agreement
    '. Under NAFTA, there
    are no longer any "customs duties" on Canadian
    goods entering the U.S or on U.S. goods entering
    Canada. Anybody who is charging you "Customs
    duties" is a fraud artist and a thief....and they
    are simply pocketing the money themselves. If
    you are in the U.S and a shipper tries billing you
    for "Customs Duties" on parts coming from Canada,
    you should contact your Congressman and file a
    complaint and ask him to investigate the company
    charging you "duties". also, since NAFTA is an
    international treaty signed and ratified by the U.S
    government - and thus making it a federal law,
    maybe the F.B.I would be interested in launching
    a fraud investigation too. I wonder how many
    millions of dollars U.P.S. and other systers have
    pocketed over the last several years charging
    non-existent import duties on shipments from
    Canada?

    Vendors are you listening? Lots of us won't buy if you ship UPS only. I try to avoid it at all costs, even to a point where I won't buy. That's lost sales to the vendors.
