I have to order a book from US. Shipping is included. What could be surprise charges at the border apart from GST.
If the book is sent thru a courier co. then they will ding you with brokerage charges. Could be anything from $20 to $40
Try and get it thru USPS

They are charging $9.75 for shipping. I believe it is US post or Canada Post
What's the price of the book?
You could be asked to pay customs duty.
If it's coming via USPS, Canada Post will add the customs bill and you will have to pay Canada Post before they'll give you the item.
They'll also add in a "handling fee".

$89. The book is not available in Canada and is sold in US only.

Thanks...I tried couple of websites including Amazon. Their pricing is much higher (nearly double) than the publisher. I ordered it from them.
