Package arrived via UPS, accompanied by a COD of $85 ($67 of which was brokerage and tax on brokerage). Needless to say was not happy at all.

Blizzard (Activision) did the same thing to me last week, only they shipped FedEx. When I told the FedEx woman at my door their brokerage fees were out to lunch she tried to tell me it was all the Canadian government duties and takes for customs.
I laughed at her and told her she was full of shit. Right on the invoice itself was their ridiculous fees and taxes on those fees.
EDIT*** Needless to say I will not be ordering from Blizzard again. They won't ship to Canada unless it's FedEx (And they don't tell you that anywhere on their site. My order was free shipping. LOL, yeah, free my ass, cost me 57 dollars for a 68 dollar order
