I know how you feel Lady Pi Phi!!!
I ordered my wedding dress online and had it shipped to my parents house in Nova Scotia.....so Art wouldn't be tempted to look. I thought I was getting a great deal on the dress. I had found it in Tampa for $575 plus alterations (and a return trip to Tampa to pick it up....plus the worry of taking it with me home!!!) I got it for $390.....shipping to Canada and a garment bag included!!!!
However...when it arrived, the UPS guy tells me I owe $109 in duty taxes!!!!!!
Nowhere on the website I got it from does it say I will be charged duty taxes....no where!!! I personally felt that the site should have mentioned that there may be additional charges to send things to Canada, but they didn't.
I paid the stupid fees.....but was very pissed about it!!!! Stupid customs fees!
Now when I send stuff to my mom, I always put gift on the info sheet....no way do I want my mom to get stuck with some stupid Customs fees!!!!
