And don't forget they re asses anything that looks suspicious so if you declare the camera at 5.00 and they decide its worth 1000 you pay tax on 1000.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">True, however, in cases where they wrongly charged you, you can get a refund by filling out the back of the declaration form and sending it with a copy of your receipt to the address listed and they'll send you a cheque back for the amount that they overcharged. I did that once for a USR I-Modem. The guy, who I bought it from, put down the retail value instead of the Ebay winning price as the Declared price and I was charged tax on the retail value. The price difference was huge. A new external USR I-modem is about $500 ($350 US) while I got it on Ebay for about $150 ($100 US).

Sean try this place:

Don't order online. Call them and ask for Joe (General Manager). He is open to negotiation and also maybe willing to match your price from US supplier. He will only charge you GST and shipping is flat $10 for 2 bus. days XPressPost.

I have great experience with this store. ;)
