Again, those brokerage fees were already included in the Shipping & Handling
costs.
Another post I made yesterday apparently got buggered up and appeared
simply as me quoting myself. What it was supposed to say, was I had to
correct an earlier post where I implied that Canada Customs charged the
$5 fee. That was incorrect. It is Canada Post that wants the fee, for
acting as the broker when the shipment comes into Canada. Canada Customs
is only after the taxes. And as you mention, other shipping companies
will charge even more...
