The whole process requires little more than 30 extra seconds to fill out the said documentation. I know, because I do this everyday and deal with our American brothers in cross border shipments.
With respect to duties being applied, this is true. When ever I order a product, I verify how much it *may* be, along with any brokerage fee's.
Many people either do not know that they can clear the parcel themselves, without being charged $40.00 for UPS, Fed-Ex, etc for doing so.
If the duties, S&H, costs more than making the same purchase here in Canada, I definately make that purchase here.
At the end of the day, this is another huge untapped market which *New Egg* could be making huge profits on, but has declined to do so.
