    My Minny 2011 landed in Canada safe and sound with a $16.72 fee. Aside from posters that I want if this is the norm I am going to have rethink my purchases from here on out. Not 10 clubs fault but to pay an extra 50% in fees on top of shipping is crazy imo.

    Just like my Argentina poster. Never since 96 have I been charged customs fees for any kind of poster order purchased with Vitalogy Health Foundation / 10club. This is a first. It sucks. It sucks big time! 

    Too bad they didn't open a 10club store in Canada. Trump & Trudeau are pure evil!

    Even worse my wife was the one to answer the door. She just rolled her eyes jokingly at the extra cost after having a discussion on how much I am spending on posters. Looks like all posters are getting hit now unfortunately.

    I also have a $15 customs fee to pay for a $35 poster the office is holding until I come pick it up.

    What a joke.

    same here.  the real kick in the nuts is that customs is $5 and $10 is for the privilege of having to pay the $5, which they call a handling fee

    Im going to have to really think twice now before placing my orders. Wife will kill me if the post man comes every other day wanting $15 from her.

    2 PJ posters arrived here in Canada yesterday and both had a $15.75 customs charge. So, an additional $30 payout. Almost the cost of another poster.

    Then you really probably don't want to tell her about the other $50US coming out for the initial purchase, too. Hahaha

    I dont understand the issue when they are worth more than your paying if your gettinig them from the 10Club.
    Maybe send her an espressobeans link to show her its worth more than you pay.
    My posters are my OH CRAP fund. I must have 20k in there if (GOD FORBID) I need to sell any.

    Posters are not the issue. The issue is the new policy at Canada customs to put this charge on everything. If I get a 35$ Tshirt now I will have to add the same fee which is a ridiculous amount imo.
