Import duties and taxes are not included in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer's responsibility if they are charged.

Please check with your local customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding/buying, we are not able to estimate/quote these charges. These charges are normally collected by the delivering freight (shipping) company or when you pick the item up.

We DO NOT mark merchandise values below value or mark items as "gifts"--- US, Canadian, and International government regulations prohibit such behaviour.

DUTY and TAXES

At the bottom of the listing, there is a section that starts "U.S. Buyers -- Please Note", and goes on to explain the additional costs of importing an item into the USA from Canada, or any other country.

Here is a quick breakdown of the fees that you will pay. It is typically comprised of 1, 2, or 3 components.

1. Duty - if there is any duty that would normally be paid for importing an item from the country of origin, that may not have been paid already, this will be collected.

2. Taxes - This can be comprised of any additional taxes that may be levied in your jurisdiction.

The shipping fee that you pay us covers only the cost of shipping, which we pre-paid. These additional fees are collected as the cost of importing, and are in no way remitted to us.
