One thing for Canucks to never allow to happen,  U P S spell 
it  b-r-o-w-n.  They put things through there own brokerage custom houses, 
demand outrages payments even after you correct them.  Better to go insured 
post.  Best, have the vedor ship it to a US address, bring it across 
ourself and pay the taxes at the border.
