please & thank you
You live in Canada and you don't know how much the taxes are for your own province?!
Ontario is 13%, same goes for Quebec and British Columbia
Other than that, you will not get a Canadian tax from CDJapan or Yesasia because they're based in Japan and Hong Kong.
The only thing you should worry about is the Canadian customs charge, which can be quite a wallet killer. So far it has happened on 4 out of 5 orders for me, including HMV Japan.
The only way to avoid Canadian customs charge (which is charged through Canada Post) is to set the "Gift Option", which will avoid customs charge. My friend has tried this method before, it's SOMEWHAT proven to work.
And for luck...try not to order stuff before Christmas. For security and money making reasons, they will check the packages more thoroughly so everyone can have a "safe and happy holiday" so the chances of getting a customs charge is like 99.9% unless you set it as a gift option which will be indicated on the package saying it is a gift.
That's Canada for you  |
