Hey BigM

or any of my fellow canucks. How long does it usually take for B&H parcels to arrive. UPS expedited. I know it says 2 to 4 business days but I lost my confirmation number and cant look it up since I had to phone it in and do we get dinged duty when it arrives, have it being delivered to my work. Spanks.

It's usually close to that, maybe up to a week in some cases.
UPS Expedited can be quite fast, I've ordered a few things from Alienbee, via UPS Expedited, and they usually arrive the next day.

There is no 'duty' on photographic equipment...but sometimes we get hit with 'brokerage' fees. They are hard to estimate and are usually highest when shipping with a courier via ground service. The advantage of air mail (like Expedited) is that the brokerage is included, so it's not a surprise when you get it.

You will have to pay GST, either when you receive the package...or UPS will send you a bill in the mail.

Ya I went with the brokerage included fee so I didnt have too pay that upon arrival, good to know about the duty though. Thanks.
