With the shipping they charge, it's almost 50% extra on the cost of the order. In comparison, I shipped US$9500 of solar batteries across the border last month and paid $170 to a reputable broker that actually had to do some work.
What unmitigated scumbags.
What's going on Canada?

Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca also apply here. See the sidebar on the homepage:
To be a scam there needs to be dishonesty. They are honest about the shipping fees being for shipping alone, with any brokerage fees being a separate line item to be paid as brokerage services are needed.
They certainly do prey on ignorance, though.
