Title: Canadians who orderd from elite keyboards
Post by: kwantz on Sat, 05 June 2010, 10:27:17

I was wondering how long did it take you to get your order?

and how much was the shipping and duty fees? Or can they write the package as free or as a gift so no duty fees are charged?

thanks

We will not falsify the value of international shipments so PLEASE do not ask! (http://www.elitekeyboards.com/support.php)

i hail from amerika but would say it probably takes a week (http://www.usps.com/international/sendpackages.htm) or so.

shipped on a tuesday, got it 13 days later on a monday. there was a national holiday in there. on the tracking it showed it entered canada on the friday before, and got to my house on monday.

it was sent usps priority, the customs forms were filled out appropriately, but i was not charged duty. i find canada post rarely charges me duty for small internet purchases, for whatever reason -- though this one  surprised me a little since it was about 175$
