I just paid an extra $27 on the pumpkins vinyl I bought from Madame Zuzu’s. Not sure how much of that was normal duty or a result of the orange dipshit.
How much was the record? I know those Madame Zuzu's records can be expensive, and usually sent by courier which give them 100% chance of being assessed for tax. If it was a $100cdn record, usually it would be your GST/PST (or HST) plus about $15 or so dollars for the brokerage fee to determine the tax. $27 could be in the ballpark of a record worth 100cdn, but would be steep for a cheaper record.
I haven't ordered any vinyl from the US since tariff's started, but I suppose as a collector, it's going to be hard to avoid the odd US only release. I have a third man records vault that will ship next month, so I guess I'll see what that one gets dinged at. I'll probably buy this one too if I can't find it in Canada or Europe.
“At one time, there was an idea for three separate albums by individuals to include various contributions from the musicians above. Anything seemed possible and attitudes were positive. In late 2021, feeling like too much time had passed, or just plain impatient, Krist and Jillian proposed 3rd Secret — combining material recorded in Seattle and on the farm. And this is how we got to this record with Jillian and Krist on the cover.”
The second album from the Seattle "supergroup" featuring members of Nirvana and Soundgarden, Bubba Dupree, Jillian Raye, Matt Cameron, Kim Thayil, Jennifer Johnson and Krist Novoselić.
Have you tried to import any vinyl since countertariff's went in? I'm guessing we would have to pay a 25% import tax to buy this? :(
Haven't received any new vinyl (from the USA) since the tariffs kicked in. Looking forward to the 4 of 6 Mad Season vinyl records coming from the USA next month. Other 2 Mad Season records are shipped from Canada & UK.

Was it shipped via DHL over at madamezuzus.com? You can self clear and not pay those import duty / DHL fees. Only pay for the taxes. https://mydhl.express.dhl/ca/en/forms/self-clearance.html
