What about the risk of duties?
Re: Amazon Europe: LEGO City Cargo Train 29% off (~$133 USD
In addition to duties, what about GST and QST?
Re: Amazon Europe: LEGO City Cargo Train 29% off (~$133 USD
Looks like GST and QST would apply (other provinces would charge the apropriate sales tax) but no duty based on the following website:

my experience is that if it ships in such a way that final delivery is by Canada Post, there's a good chance you won't pay any tax. But if final delivery is by UPS, you'll be on the hook for PST/GST/HST/QST/whateverST plus a $10 fee. After an initial run of good luck, almost all my orders from Amazon Europe have been delivered by UPS and incur the fee and tax. So assume the worst and only order if you still consider it a good deal after tax + $10.

A few years ago, nearly all my orders were sent via DHL.. I would never pay any duties.. then last year it seemed to reverse and nearly all my orders were sent with UPS..pbb99 wrote:my experience is that if it ships in such a way that final delivery is by Canada Post, there's a good chance you won't pay any tax.

I have had orders lost/damaged with DHL, and maybe that is why the change... also be careful.. if you order 3 trains at once, they may actually send each separately, and in that case you would get dinged the $10 surcharge on EACH.
