Quick question for Canadians buying from Amazon France...Do they charge an 'Import Fee' or do you end up getting hit with a custom fee to pay when the package gets delivered?

[kokot]

Got 7938 delivered today and there was no "Import Fee".

my experience so far: cargo train - no fees/taxes, tower bridge - fees/taxes were added
DHL was carrier for cargo train, UPS was carrier for tower bridge

based on the above and Kokot experience as well as all the experiences contained in the european thread on amazon.fr, chances are you will be hit with some fees/taxes on the SSD.

The price comes out close to $400 cdn and the fees/taxes are the deal breaker. once you pay the fees/taxes, its slightly more than buying US retail

[kokot]

DHL is carrier for SSD so I'm hoping there wont be any extra fees.

Hey thanks for the info guys!

Thinking of getting the Pet Shop (10218) from amazon.fr and total would be 129 euros shipping included. And according to the website, it also includes "TVA" which is some kind of tax I think. And that's only thing holding me back. Is "TVA" the import fee? Hmm.

[ricefields]

no, TVA is not import fee. TVA = VAT = value added tax. For europeans only.
petshop comes out to $180cdn without fees and import taxes. lego.com had petshop at $180 during black friday weekend so if you get hit with taxes on this import its going to end up costing more than buying it in canada....that's too close a call...SSD is discounted enough that even if you get hit with taxes you end up still getting a decent deal matching closely to the TRU BOGO 40% sale.

was there someone that already reported that SSD was shipped by DHL and no taxes were collected?
