basically if you order more than 1 steel you will get hit with VAT/import taxes which is like 20%, its a rip off, really i think now it works out cheaper to buy one at a time, and wait for that to be shipped and then buy another.
or you could get someone from canada to buy them for you, check they are not damaged and then send them you as a gift so you dont get import fees- i would go for this one if you are ordering more than 2
Speaking as a US member, I've never been hit with customs from any Amazon site. I'm just speaking for myself, though. and that's from any countries Amazon site; .de, .jp, .CA, .fr, .UK etc.

Ill add to that as a Canadian member that I have only been hit with customs from one Amazon site.. JP. Because of there ludicrous shipping charges combined with duties + taxes + fees I pretty much refuse to buy from them anymore. Were talking $60-$70 a steel at that point when its all said and done. Even if you order multiple steels you won't get away less then $50-$55 a steel. It pains me too since I really wanted those JP BB, and TDK releases.
No tax or customs from Amazon UK, CA, USA, DE, FR. A big thumbs up to those Amazon sites from me.
We are very lucky in Australia. We only need to pay GST (10%) on orders above $1000. I haven't been hit with customs ever.
That is different than me as you and I are in the Lower Mainland. All my orders from Amazon JP have yet to hit by customs but each time I had to go to the local DHL depot to pick up the parcels as I wasn't home when DHL came by.
A few years ago, I got hit on my Amazon DE and UK orders.
Fair or not fair?
T2 Japanese Steelbook (v1.0) for $150?
Faster (german version) GBP 34?

That's interesting staind as I think I've managed to secure one for £100 inc shipping... waiting for pics. Fingers crossed 
Yeah its £90 with a dent and the seller is on the bad trades list.
200 euros is far over its value. Jos remember that bullets that we were both bidding and it ended at £112 plus £8 shipping? It was your fault I couldn't win that one
And you lost by £2 I seen others sell for $200 shipped and one at 150 euros before shipping.

Yeah, I think it's a good price £90 because those extras only came with the first 500 copies, the only problem is the seller. LOL
How much for a used very good condition Gladiator steelcase ?
Thanks for the feedback ladies!

I really should look at this 'bad traders' list thats been mentioned as i was close to sending him an offer
