I'm not sure how many Canadian EF users there are here, but I am wondering if there is anyway to avoid the atrocious custom fees. I know when shopping online in the states, there is always that chance.. but I am wondering how it can be avoided, or if that is even possible?
I know that when I purchase things from Ebay users in America, they send as "gift" on the packaging sticker they have to fill out, that way it doesn't get charged... but I assume that EF will not ship as a gift since it is a larger company (only smaller companies usually do this because they do not have as many international orders going out).
I'm just curious because it is a serious B when they arrive asking for cheque or credit card when I have neither (I usually just buy gift credt cards to purchase online).
