I'm looking at a Tamiya Gloster Meteor kit on ebay, shipping from Canada. With all the issues recently, has anyone purchased recently and seen tariffs applied to their purchase? Looks like a good deal for our Canadian friends. fubar57 I was wondering if I'm bidding against you

Postage/Shipping in the US is very high, one reason I stopped selling on ebay. Ten + years ago, it was easy to sell on eBay, and postage was reasonable, I could either absorb it or pass on to buyer.
 
Took me over almost a year to find this but it explains shipping costs

Why it's so much cheaper to ship stuff from China than within Canada | CBC Radio

Have you ever wondered why it can cost more to have something shipped from the U.S. compared to China, even though the United States is right next door? The answer dates all the way back to 1874 and the creation of the Universal Postal Union.
