As noted, I bought two and paid for both the product and the shipping. Shipping to Canada was actually as much as the product. Then I got a notification from DHL that I needed to pay tax and customs processing on top, that is an extra $20. Since tax is only 13% of the product cost, the processing fee is significant. If the package had been sent by regular mail (Royal Mail as it is in the UK), there'd have been no processing fee and the postal delivery person would have come to my door to collect the tax (if collected at all).
