Ordered a package from Toronto Airsoft shipped to my office address. There's 5 companies in the building, no reception. Had my name, suite number and company name on package, signature required. Noone was in the office when the delivery came in. Some random guy signed for the package, nobody from my company or other ones in the building. FML.

EDIT: Update - Finally managed to track the package, there was the wrong signature associated with the tracking number. Some other guy from one of our neighbour companies signed for the package. So all's well that ends well in this case.

$300 (after $45 shipping) package from SKD arrived today. $110.45 fee when this prick arrived at my door WTF?!?!? Seriously pissed right now.
Does this sound normal or am I right in being a little bit ticked

Depends what's in the box, soft goods?

Rush July 10th, 2012 16:19

A vest and two pouches

Pssst, right from the website,,,

If you want cheaper shipping charges, become an American!

Rush July 10th, 2012 16:40

USPS
I've Had things shipped with both companies before and have never had a charge. I thought Canada post charged a flat $8.50 brokerage fee and then the tax.
That should be no where near $110

Probably incorrectly marked as clothing or something. Clothing has a huge tax on them.

Pretty sure SKD marked down the full total as the declared value. That's why you got charged a insane amount.

Rush July 10th, 2012 17:15

If it was I correctly labeled or SKD did put the total cost down, would there be anything I could do to correct the issue? Or am I just stuck nursing my bum hole?

Fill out the back of the duty for if they made an error and send it in. You have to figure oht what the proper amount of tax when you do.

Would a vest and pouches be correctly classified as clothing? Or could it be put under something else, and if so, what?

Danke July 10th, 2012 20:44

What do you do with a vest?

Rush July 10th, 2012 21:07

Yeah yeah yeah, I know that you wear a vest. The quote just had me curious
