how much for duty/import fees ?

[Canadian Man]

Sean, Hears a little story for you.

Katie(my wife) and I recently started a karaeoke business....We purchased all of our sound equipment locally but the cd's we were hesitating on because if we purchased them locally it threw us way over our budget.

Anyway so we were looking online and found the same CD set in the USA to be ALOT less than if we purchased it from calgary or even anyware in canada.

So kate called to customs,I think and asked how much duty would be charged on these cd's and the guy said that they don't charge duty on cd's.
:eek: WOW we said.

So, we purchased these cd's from the US for a total of $600, which was the final price and if we purchased the same cd set locally it would have cost us $1850.

So I don't really know how this portrays to your question other than calling customs and asking and maybe they will suprise ya. :confused:

Cheers
