Should I expect to get hammered by the US Customs Service for placing an order with MEC from the US over the internet?
I see many of their products are from Vietnam. Vietnam is not a "Most Favored Nation" and therefore a 42% duty would be place on all imports even those stopping through Canada.
Is this a real concern or will it most likely run through the Postal System under the radar?
I've ordered from barrabes.com with the same success as Dante. Just wondering, if you did get a customs bill could you return it to MEC and get a waiver on the customs charges?
I've ordered from MEC once and had no problems. The shipping was the only cost apart from the product. I venture a guess that there are no customs fees due to the NAFTA agreement but I could be wrong. The last time I drove up there last August I only bought ~$100 worth of stuff so I didn't qualify to get the tax back, but next time I go I might and see how it works.
Despair is only for those who see the end beyond all doubt.
