shipping to Canada

[ged]

hello out there in cnc land. Has anyone ordered xylotex 3 or 4 axis packages in Canada? Were there any hidden costs like duty or anything else when it arrived at your door? thanks for all replies

Ask the shipper to make sure it is shipped under commodity code 8537101111
It should be duty free, especially if exported under NAFTA (US & Mexico)
For USPS/Can post you may have to pay a $5.00 fee plus Gst & Pst.
For UPS, unless you clear your own, you will pay a brokerage fee of around $30.00 plus Gst & Pst.

I ordered 2 - 3axis boards two years ago , and had them mailed with no problems. I've never used , or powered them up , and would consider selling them along with an enclosure and 27v power supply if you're interested ? Canada post is random about collecting pst and gst on things from the states . 50 % of the time the stuff just comes through . ---UPS will nail you to the wall with fees and taxes every time guaranteed .

I ordered the 3 axis system kit on a Saturday and recieved it the next wednesday, so 7-8 buisness days for shipping. Of course i also got hit with a $56 bill from the border Nazis.
