amazon.com shipping to Canada

[cipher]

Frankly, the Amazon shipping and import duty charges are a joke. For example, if you are trying to take advantage of the buy 10 get $100 off deal right now, your subtotal can come out to $70, while your shipping/import fees are an additional $40+, for only 10 discs!

I used to import from Amazon.com all the time. but after the policy changes in the past year (maybe to try and encourage Candiands to use Amazon.ca?) I've had to resort to sending them to an American relative who either forwards them or brings them up herself when she visits. In the end it's now cheaper, but I'd rather pay a reasonable shipping rate so I could get them sooner.
