Just a hint for anyone taking advantage of this offer from Canada:

DON'T USE UPS ACROSS THE BORDER!

Their customs clearance methods are slow and painful. They will call you
from Detroit and demand that you pay their customs clearance charges (or
else you'd better have your own broker there). This charge applies even
if there is not duty or FST applicable.

Even Air Parcel Post is better than UPS...
