IRO into canada?

Has anyone had experience shipping these into canadian shores?

I was just wondering if customs will totally **** you and charge something silly like $200 just for it to cross the boarder!

i'm considering one of these, but am weary of purchasing large items from the 'states.

I saw an IRO frame in Cavern and I think I heard a woman order an IRO Mark V from Keith on Tuesday. Give cavernmech a shout.
