UPS nailed me for $33 brokerage on a $100 shipment already owned by
me... a camera coming back from repair! BLOODY CROOKS!!!
FedEx does include brokerage in their express charges. That's why it's
$45 (and more!) to send something to the States. BLOODY CROOKS!!!
Canada Post, as much as we love to hate them, is at least reasonable
in their fees, and in my experience (YMMV) gets it there in reasonable
time and without damage. Blame Cretin... uhhhh.... Chretien and
<insert Premier's name here> for the taxes Canada Post collects.
