Warren,
You might want to be wary of UPS when shipping stuff from the USA. I recently bought a Pinarello frame off eBay from a list member and ended up paying ~C$48.00 in "brokerage fees" (on top of the taxes) on an item that cost less than US$200. Back in November I bought another frame off eBay (~US$250) which was shipped via USPS/Canada Post. Other than the standard taxes, there was only a C$5.00 handling charge from the post office.
Cheers,
Terry Houlahan Ottawa, ON.

I'm having some large but lightweight motorcycle panniers sent up from the US to Toronto and don't know who does the best (read cheapest) job. Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Thanks
