[Amps] Transformer adivice

[Dave M]

Brokerage is some arbitrary fee they charge for clearing customs , it is NOT charged by the USPS nor Canada post and from what I am reading online other carriers like DHL charge a small nominal amount , apparently UPS is being involved in a class action suit regarding this policy , their fees are way out of line and in my opinion is just a cash grab

I used the online cost calculator to price shop for the best shipping cost , it would have been easy for them to document the full amount , they do their own brokerage in house , but live and learn if ALL of my life lessons only cost 45 bucks LOL
