Re: Shipping With UPS From The States - BEWARE!

I figured that out the hard way too, but, I didn't know FEDEX didn't charge that fee.

Re: Shipping With UPS From The States - BEWARE!

FedEx treats duty fees differently. UPS charges their inflated brokerage fee to cover any duties. Not to mention that FedEx treats their packages better and almost NEVER screws up.

There was a story in another forum on this site where a case shipped via UPS was impaled by a forklift, and crushed on all four corners.

Re: Shipping With UPS From The States - BEWARE!

I just upgraded my raytracing software, Vue D'Esprit. It cost me $99.00 USA, plus a $20.00 shipping fee. I thought not too bad until UPS delivered it to my door with a brokerage fee of $59.00 !
