Reply to comment by JRockland in never buying from KDBFans or DHL ever again by REBKeeb

I've ordered from drop, omega keys, and the key company and had zero issue, one comment also said that when he buys stuff from KDB he gets it sent outside of Canada then shipped to him after and the shipping costs are cheaper, its DHL price spiking for nr, and KDB could have at least let me know about the extra fees

I've been hit with import fees on Drop orders too sometimes. You can try to order from the KBDFans Aliexpress store instead, I haven't been hit by import taxes on orders from Aliexpress yet (I'm in BC). Though shipping is a lot slower

Customs duties are unavoidable unless they undervalue the shipment but they could have offered cheaper shipping rates. It seems like these companies are charging the standard rate to customers. I'm sure these keyboard vendors that are having big sale volumes get a very good discount from courier companies like DHL or FedEx.

Yea they don't undervalue there products but 100$cad is still way too much for just shipping costs
