Hi, my question is for those of you in Canada, who already ordered some products from T-Nation : Were you charged for extra customs fees each time you received your package?
If not, do you have any tips in order to limitate those extra (non-justified) custom fees?
oh…so it seems that we cannot get rid of it in any ways?
I planned to order for somewhere between $250-$300 (I need some stuff for a MAG-10 cycle) But man if I am charged 150$ for duty fees…that is just crazy!
I ordered from elitefts and for a 14$ order they charges me 20$
and a friend of mine send me something ( a gift ) he declared a 20$ value so they charge me 23$ for my gift!
it’s from ups though ups have insane brokerage fees.
Here is a solution or two that MAY work out cheaper for you. Log on to www.SNDCanada.com. This is a Canadian based distributor of supliments and they carry Biotest products.
Grow! goes for $49.99 CDN which is a lot higher than T-Nation, but there appears to be free shipping, and no import duties. They also have a store in downtown Toronto (those prices may be slightly higher). Ottway’s downtown store is also carring some products, though I don’t know which one at this point. And there are probably others.

Humm…ok so its looks like it confirms what I thought about those extra fees. They looks like being charged more frequently (or always) when shipped by FEDEX or UPS…because I never paid any customs fees with USPS…compared to FEDEX…
