Re: BBTS
Ship by United States Postal Service (USPO). Fees get charged by Canada Post on delivery.
Under $50 CANADIAN (don't forget to convert it) for the items (before shipping) and you have a good chance of getting charged no fees.
$50-$100 CANADIAN item(s) and it's a dice roll as to whether you get hit with fees.
Over $100 Cdn item(s) and you'll almost certainly get hit.
Here's the Canada Post fees in Ontario:
13% of item value in cdn dollars for the hst
+ $10 cdn processing fee
Examples:
$30 usd figure, plus $13 usd for USPO shipping
- you pay BBTS $43 usd
- Canada Post delivers it, likely no additional charges
$120 usd figure, plus $18 usd for USPO shipping
- you pay BBTS the $138 usd
- Canada Post delivers it asking for an extra $30.41 cdn
(You can pay cash or credit card to the postal carrier, or they can take it to the post office and you pay/pickup there)
Where did that $30.41 come from?
* item cost converted to cdn $ = $157 cdn (note they don't care what you paid fo shipping over that)
* 13% of $157 cdn = $20.41 cdn
* add the $10 cdn fee
= $30.41 cdn
