Subject:Re: UPS BROKERAGE FEES TO CANADA - RATE CHART
From:David Marshall
Date:Tue, 30 Oct 2007 09:15:18 -0700

Just a money making scam - 110%

It costs no more or no less to
clear a $10 item as it does a $10.000 item.

Canada Post charges
$5 for a brokerage fee no matter how much the item is.

UPS also charges a fee to pay the tax too and it is also very hard if
not impossible to appeal their decisions if they make a mistake - you are
at there mercy.  They are scam artists all the way.

No, I
am not bitter - just pissed off at UPS for screwing me every chance they
get...
