I've hesitated buying because normally any cross border shipments UPS ****s me. I'll end up with another $20+ tacked on by UPS. No one else have that?
Yes. At least yours was only $20.
What can brown do for me? Not touch a package that has to come across the border. The difference is that with USPS, you're expected to pay the duty if customs decides to ask for it. With UPS, they pay it, and charge you extra for the service. At least that's what I understood from my invoice.
