I'm clueless about Canada to US, and US to Canada shipping, duties, taxes etc.
I'm looking at an amp on Canuck Audio Mart in Ottawa, and the seller says he'll ship "...at great expense to buyer". His selling price is in line with what I'd expect to pay, but I'm wondering how bad all the various duties, etc will be? And I guess freight rate on UPS, Fedex etc will be nuts going across the border?
Is there a shipping calculator anywhere that takes into account all the applicable fees?
And for those of you with experience, would the same package going to/from the same addresses cost the same going both ways? That is, is it cheaper to import from Canada, or export to Canada?
