    Default Shipping to Canada? DONT USE UPS!!!

    UPS is totally criminal, and charges Canadians ridiculous 'brokerage' fees on shipments from the US. Not tax, not duty- 'brokerage'. I just had to send back the corset from Guen I've been waiting a month for because they wanted $78 in brokerage. No foolin'. 1 corset, $100-ish, $78 in brokerage. Plus the actual shipping, which was already paid on Guen's side.

    ARGH! Makes me MAD!

    Fed Ex is not as bad, but still icky. PLEASE, when mailing to a Canadian, use USPS ONLY unless requested!!

    Thank you.

    I always use USPS for international shipping, but this is good to know in case customer's request a different shipping service.

    While I don't care for UPS or FedEx over seas, I found this from UPS interesting:

    ^yeah, I dont even know wtf they're on about there...according to that, I should have paid $19-29. I would have too, cuz I want my corset NOOOOW. *pout*

    Also, note that Guen has been more than helpful in this sit., and had no way of knowing about this UPS garbage. I usually dont worry about it because most people choose the cheap shipping route, but lovely Guen decided to be nice and ship it to me all fast, not knowing tha UPS are evil criminals.

    What a crummy scam. I'm surprised they get away with that.
