Canadian b*tch - frackin' leapfrog.com!

[Hemlock]

I'm so sorry, and also, I hear you. This is a rant that is close to my heart

Amazon.com is now charging up front for perceived "duty/tariff/customs charges" and is cracking down - without any sort of warning - on all sorts of other things as well. I used to order books from them all the time because they shipped so much faster than retailers w/in Canada (2-7 days vs. 4-6 WEEKS!). But no more In terms of Canadian retailers online I shop at Indigo/Chapters and that's about it. We are waaaay behind on online shopping - decades behind. It's pretty sad.

Just wanted to say that I have ordered several items from Amazon.com (including some bigger ticket items like strollers) and was charged the duty/tariff/customs charges, but each time I received a refund for the full amount charged about 6-8 weeks later. My sister just ordered a vacuum a few weeks ago and also received a refund for the full amount of the duty/customs charges.
