I just did yesterday!! It was only $6.00 worth so I doubt it!! Canada customs charges a $5.00 fee on anything over $20.00 in value.The higher the value the more fees.

I ordered in the fall and there were no customs charges. I buy stuff on ebay all the time and in 5 years I think I've had to pay customs twice(but it is a lot of money when they do charge!!!)

I hear yah Sandra!!! I buy from Ebay all the time and some sellers have put the new value of a few items on the form and I have been dinged but if you fill out the back of the customs form and send a copy of the ebay auction...Canada post will refund your money.

I ordered last week and have not received my anxiously awaited order (can you say Americolor?)

Anyway, I used to order from ebay ALOT and never had a customs charge.

When I get my order (over $40 US) I will post again.

Got my order last Monday (had a hard time finding this post) It was delivered with my regular mail, and I have no indication there were any extra charges.

Order was sent on Jan 11 and I received Jan 23.

Happy ordering!

Just wanted to update this.
I placed two orders in the CC store on a Wednesday. One was sent to Indiana and the other to Ontario, Canada.
The one to Indiana arrived the following Monday, and the one to Ontario arrived on the Tuesday. So not even a week!! No customs charges or anything like that.
