    Does anyone know how much brokereage fees are usually? Someone just mentioned to me in passing that I would probably be stuck with em, and they're pretty pricey.

    If the stuff is being sent via UPS then expect a hefty fee. You get charged GST (7%) on the assigned value, plus a brokerage and handling fee. In your case for the coilovers I would be prepared to give the man in brown around $150 when he shows up

              When the guy sent me my exhaust over from Boston, he used United States Postal Service, and sent it as a gift to me. Therefore I payed nothing *hint hint*

                  Yeah but companies usually don't like doing that. People will, companies usually won't. And yeah USPS does not charge brokerage, but they do not track stuff either, so thats why not alot of companies will use it.

                    I think i've mentioned this before, but if you send UPS Air instead of UPS Ground it is brokered differently, and you often pay less. In many cases, you will pay less after brokerage to send something Air then Ground, and Air is also faster.
