Hi Jake, 

  Which mail service do you use? I need to get set up with them, too.

  UPS has a racket going with brokerage fees. That rate chart posted
earlier is only a humorous suggestion of what they may or may not
actually charge you at delivery (or, even more entertainingly, by mail 3
*months* after the shipment was received, which is what I'm dealing with
right now).

Robyn

I'm with David.

The $18.00 brokerage fee on the $20.00 package is why I got myself a
mail
service in Blaine for those US suppliers only geared up to ship UPS.
