Ordering From Tyga?

Anyone ever order from them? Trying to decide if I should ship to Canada or to my US address to avoid possible brokerage fees.

Their site says they ship by UPS. That means a brokerage fee for sure. UPS deliveries are a pain in the butt.

Ship to the US and pick it up. If UPS is involved in cross border shipping you are guaranteed to get raped in fees.

border mischarged me for a windscreen saying it was a $1700 piece... i made a thread.

Or clear it yourself. Just have UPS scan and email the commercial invoice and go pay the tax at any CBSA office. It takes about 30 seconds.

They have three shipping options, one of which is UPS but I won't be choosing them.

Tyga isn't in the US. I think they are in Thailand....SHip it another way, not UPS.
I have found that anything I buy from anywhere other than the USA, comes fast and cheap. Just american purchases have been pricey on shipping and duties

In theory, CBSA charges should be the same, but UPS charges a fee for CBSA processing, this is where they make their money and you can't avoid this by paying the charge yourself at a CBSA office. Even if not listed I always ask vendor if they can ship via USPS and most will do this. I very seldom get charged any fees, duties or sales taxes when receiving parts via USPS and then CP.

UPS does not charge brokerage on air shipments so no harm ordering UPS unless it is shipping by ground from the USA
