Re: How does this work

said by elwoodblues:

Always insist that stuff from the us is sent via USPS , CP will only charge you 5 bucks to "clear it" for you.

I thought it was $8 plus GST on the item

edit: UPS brokerage fess are high....so if it was shipped that way, expect a small fortune to payout

UPS brokerage fees seem arbitrarily high without explanation.

I once ordered a $51 pair of shoes which received the usual brokerage fees + UPS brokerage handling fees + UPS brokerage release fees and the overall cost was $121, more than twice as much the cost of the shoes.
