Shipping to Canada

Check with the dealers and see what they say. They know the best ways of doing it. I've not heard of any particular problems with Canada and have sent a watch to Canada for repairs myself in a simple envelope marked 'watch $200'.joeycucu said:
Also, if you're unsure, make sure the dealer covers customs losses.
Knock on wood, I've had no customs problems at all. I don't think I've ever even seen another member post about a confiscated watch in Canada.
The closest I saw was a post about a Canadian who returned home from the US wearing a Panerai and Customs tried to tax him for it as he had no proof of purchase. Luckily he had pictures of him wearing it in Canada on his camera so they were able to see it wasn't an import.andreww said:
They never considered it was a rep and were trying to tax him on full retail value.
Issues and questions for Canada will include the following: Are there any precious jewels? If not duty is around 30%. If shipped EMS or Fedex or other courier and a broker is required then brokerage fees would also apply. Usually 20-30 $ Canadian per shipment. Occasionally by mail for lessor values it may clear with no additional expense. Just the luck of the draw. Information is from personal experience. Hope this helps.
No problems at all for me so far , it will be shipped from Asia via EMS and then when it hits Canadian soil it will be transferred and delivered via Canada Post ..
I have not been charged with any tax or duties so far ..

The only downfall i have noticed is the delay between US and Canada with respect to shipping time.
I have shipped packages to the UK by the same means I used to ship to Canada and on average the Uk delivery was 7 days total, Versus same method to Canada was 11 days.
Why? I don't really know one my local postal workers told me it is always slower to Canada.

River's packages get here in 4 days - most others a little longer but not much. These do not come from the US. If you are ordering from the US then use Golbal Priority.
