Default how much for duty/import fees ?

Unless you are getting a super deal I wouldn't bother. If the package is shipped UPS you would be charged about $50.00 brokerage fee, plus applicable duty and taxes. If by U.S.Mail the fee is duty plus taxes and a $5.00 handling fee at Canada Post. Most things are duty free but you will have to pay g.s.t

300 + 20.00 shipping x 1.57(a guess) exchange = 500.00

$500 + g.s.t = $535.00
Brokerage fees around $50.00 to &75.00.
check the fee schedule on the UPS website. You have to hunt for it as it's burried in there pretty good.

All told the camera is going to cost you around 600 bucks. What are you going to do if it needs service, a lot of warranty's won't be honoured if the item is not bought in the country it's sold.
