Importing clothing???

Post by lost_canuck » Sat, 03 Feb 2007 7:59 pm

A question, no actually two questions

A) Does anyone know how much tax/duty you would pay to ship in clothes from the US?

B) I am thinking of placing an order from American Eagle and was wondering if someone else wanted to go in on an order and split the shipping/duty costs? :)

If anyone is interested please let me know, but again if it becomes treated as a business well Image

I thought of going up to a couple of hundred dollars (american) with postage of $50 on top of cost. I want two things brings it to $87, if someone spends more the shipping will come out cheaper, anyoneImage
