Does anyone know how much tax we pay on a product shipped to us from the U.S? If port of entry is Vancouver, do we pay 13%? ORRRRR, do we only pay 7%(GST)?

 

Tax is assessed based on the US-Can $ conversion and the final destination. In AB, you would only pay the 7% GST. It doesn't matter the port of entry unless that's where you choose to pick it up.

 

xviper, do u know if going through USPS or Postal.....the brokerage fees are $5??....I think we went through this in another forum but i forget.......could u let me know.....i think im gonna go with USPS when ordering the exhaust....cheaper that way....

 

I know that items declared below about $100.00 Can. it's only $5.00 whereas UPS is a minimum of $25.00. Above $100.00, I can't say. My Neuspeed came a long time ago and I don't have the paper work on it anymore.

 

It'll still be cheaper than UPS though, right?

 

I'm thinking yes but you should phone both to confirm.

 

I did better than phone....i went over there and the lady told me she didnt know and that they didnt handle that sorta thing......that i would have to call customs and see how much they would charge?....totally didnt make sense to me....but oh well......i guess i call customs now?....to much hassle......its gonna be cheaper, i hope!
