It's insane. Oh well...I can move to Alaska since they have 0% sales tax...and $329 is $329.

I had wonderful run ins with UPS and customs/duties before.. even when sending myself stuff. It was a huge mess that I despise UPS for, on top of the screwed up packages I kept receiving.

My advice is (when possible) use Purolator.

So you order something from Apple and they ship it from China? Is that why Apple charges so much?

Everything Apple makes is made in China. It has to come from China.

Then people buy iPhones in the US and send them back to China:

It's like me going to the USA to buy Canadian alcohol and bringing it back to Canada because it's cheaper in the US...

Crazy world we live in.

said by swintec:

Unless apple paid for ground service which has a specified time window and because of christmas season, the drivers ran late which means after the evening cut off for ground, UPS will deliver it tomorrow because apple only paid for ground with a time frame of 9-5 for example and it wouldnt make it due to volume.

To the best of my knowledge, the shipper cannot indicate a delivery time "window". The only time-sensitive options the shipper has is with 1-day or 2-day deliveries and you can specify to deliver BEFORE a few times (like 8am, 10:30am, and 3pm). That's for BUSINESS addresses too. Residential has different times, at least for the afternoon.

And UPS will hardly not deliver on a day due to volume. Their drivers are now out until 8 or 9pm.

You just now figured out that UPS has horrible service?

UPS is clueless on how to deliver mail
That is because they aren't in the mail business.
