Honestly; I’m impressed they both messaged you and gave you options.
Usually you wouldn’t find out until the mailman is demanding payment for the package he’s holding hostage in front of you.
I was surprised too! I guess Canadians hold up to their reputation 🙂👍
Yeah, Canadians are good people. I like them a lot.
Canada has all sorts of people, like every other country. Canadian mining companies are awful in Mexico, negotiating draconian concessions from corrupt governments, which allows them to extract minerals very cheap while ignoring environmental laws.
I understand that corrupt politicians are to blame, but Canadian businessmen can be surprisingly impolite and exploitative.
Canada as a nation has a concept of common good.
America is obsessed with the idea of not helping the poor because if they’re not incentivized to “bootstrap,” they’ll get lazy.
Americans die of not having access to drugs that are developed In America and subsidized by American tax dollars.
I think we all know which is more ethical.
Is the USPS even equipped to collect customs fees? As USian I’ve never paid an import fee as an end consumer ever in my entire life. All of this is so stupid.
The CBP collect import taxes. You never had to pay it because there was a longstanding rule called “De Minimis” which exempted all items under $800 from import taxes. the 2nd trump administration overturned the De Minimis rule (does not require congress AFIAK).
Usually, if you buy from a US reseller, you don’t pay it directly, but if you order directly from outside of the country, it goes through customs and you’ll have to pay it.
