DON'T ship by UPS.


Never.


Ever.



Ship by postal if possible, only costs $5.00 to cover the paperwork.
DHL is pretty good for brokerage fees right now, they're after
buisness .

Shouldn't be any duty on stuff marked as US origin on the paperwork,
you will have to pay the GST .

I posted earlier regarding a Canadian alternate for 4130 steeel tubing
but now require assistance when importing other aircraft supplies into
Canada from Aircraft Spruce.

When parcel arrives here in Canada, shipping, GST, duty and brokerage
fees are incredibly high... Are there any secrets or hints I might use
when having this stuff shipped north... For those who do a lot of
importing, how is it best accomplished? Can a small aviation
enthusiast like myself save a little in any way?

thanks so much in advance
