Someone sent me a package via UPS, and once again they tacked on a $50 customs clearance fee.
Please, if you're sending a package across the US/Canadian border, don't use UPS. Fedex doesn't charge for customs clearance; neither does the post office. UPS is just greedy.

Fifty dollars? Holy crap, that's a rip-off!
Wow, talk about a profit center!
the package must have been worth $1000 or so right? they wouldn't tack a $50 fee on to a $20 book from Amazon
The package was worth $85.
Hmm. I just googled "UPS customs" and got this page:
http://www.ups.com/content/ca/en/shipping/cost/zones/customs_clearance.html
Perhaps they thought it was $850 instead of $85. The customs for $850 is about fifty-two bucks.
Can you get a refund?
Maybe I didn't read closely enough.
