Hi can anybody give me a hint about how much will be the taxes and custom fees for a 600 C$ reel imported straight from Japan ?
I would appreciate any info on the subject you might have. Thank you .

Thank you both for your quick replies . I kind of get the idea . I will think about it . What if one buys something used ( like from a eBay auction) and is no bill there ?

I haven't bought much used but I would assume you would still get hit with at least GST and maybe some crazy brokerage fees.
Notice in CNDbasshunters pic, that there are $84.19 in brokerage. That is high so I am assuming this was shipped Via UPS as they have crazy brokerage costs. if shipped by USPS, they are usually very reasonable.
As per my PM, I do not recall there being any brokerage with any of my shipments from the website I provided.
