if you click for Shipping CHarges the brokage and fee's are listed... They now ship ALL-INCLUSIVE... still cheaper than Canadian market after taxes and brokage...

Must pay GST (5%) & usually duty (6.1% I think if not made in US or Mexico), though sometimes they forget.

Either way, it is still cheaper!

Sorry, I can't elaborate on brokerage.
