hm. i have a bill for $66.97 in front of me (U$ as far as i can tell), and i wonder if anyone can offer some clarification on this. i am more than a little unhappy about this, the duty charges are just under 50% of what i paid for the upgrade ($139.95 USD). now, i had also received the 2003 upgrade quite recently in waiting for 2k4, and wasn't charged ANYTHING at that time.
both shipments came in through calgary, not that that should make any difference. courier was DHL, but if i remember correctly, loomis actually brought it to the canada post outlet where i picked it up.

the last fee is apparently charged because they have never handled this item (the shirt maybe?), so had to add it to their database, according to the guy at canada post i spoke to.
this is really disgusting, is this normal!? who do i have to yell at to get rid of some of these charges (i'm sure i'm stuck with the GST-import charge)?
jef
...aber was ist normal?...
