Do not use UPS, FedEx or Purolator, any courier willl charge you outrageous brokerage fees that will limit the true value of the deal you are looking to get.
AMEN to that.
Don't ship UPS for sure. From experience they charge you a 30 dollar broker fee to get stuff over the border. A total scam, and definitely sucks when you only ordered a 5 dollar part! There is a class action lawsuit against UPS in B.C. over the way they're doing business with this broker fee.
