Tax and Duty to USA New Options Offered

[Glen]

I have to admit Fedex look after us well.

Can't say they work for the end consumer...

Last package was a brokerage fee of 28.25 CDN. No taxes, on most products from almost anywhere. The fee was just for the custom brokerage which the government otherwise provides for free. FedX, as opposed to UPS, also works only during the day, with one delivery attempt only, thereafter one has to drive to their outlet, in one industrial part of the city not close to where anyone lives, and before the end of work day for many people.

UPS delivers into the evening, with residential based routes and will make more than one attempt.

Choice for me is, in order, Royal Mail/USPS, then UPS and last FedX. I look for products from suppliers that mail first, then used alternatives only when not available...
