Any Canucks Have Experience With Customs and Duties on Orders from Shavemac?

[karzbi]

Hi all -- Happy Columbus Day/Canadian Thanksgiving --

Can any Canadians out there comment on their experience ordering shaving brushes from Shavemac in Germany? Specifically wondering about brokerage fees, customs fees and duties.

Cheers
Karl

I do. Bernd was awesome to deal with. It came lightening fast, via FedEx, in a small mail pouch. No customs hassles. No brokerage fees, no duty.

Very unlike when I ordered a brush from Executive Shaving co in the UK. It took almost 4 weeks, and I had to pay an extra $15-20 in duty.

Shavemac rules.
