haha, that's how i read it too!
but yeah, totally fuck UdotPdotS - do they think they're the mob?? are they??

― impermanent rrrobyn (rrrobyn), Friday, 22 December 2006 18:04 (seventeen years ago) link

brokerage fees are a pain in the ass, but they're not the fault of UPS! if you had something shipped int'lly, it should be the responsibility of the shipper to inform you of the possibility of import taxes, duties, etc etc.

― elmo albatross (allocryptic), Friday, 22 December 2006 18:14 (seventeen years ago) link

but they never do! and shippers usually don't even give you the option of just using regular mail! i understand duty fees, sure, but i don't know how 'brokerage' fees are calculated

― impermanent rrrobyn (rrrobyn), Friday, 22 December 2006 18:21 (seventeen years ago) link

UPS charges the highest brokerage fees in the industry - from what I have read. These fees are often 'hidden' to most customers, since they are not included in the item price or the shipping and are separate from the taxes (discussed below). For example, if I were to order a wakeboard for $325 USD from UPS, according to their brokerage fee schedule, I would have to pay $35.55 brokerage + $5.85 disbursement (minimum) + $4.25 fee for collecting brokerage charge. Add taxes, shipping and convert this order to Canadian funds and this order no longer looks like a deal. Apparently you can set it up to clear customs by yourself, but trying to figure out how is as easy as turning water to gold. If your order is shipped UPS when you were told it would be shipped with another company, you can refuse to accept the order & charges and it will be sent back to the retailer.
