Newegg.ca Customs charges

Anyone have experience with Newegg.ca? I know their warehouses are in the US, so I just wonder if they charge a customs brokering fee with UPS. I pretty much bought a new computer and it was pretty cheap ordering from them, but I wonder how much the customs fee will be.

there won't be any customs, since they already charge you GST & PST included in their invoice. For custom purposes they see you as purchasing something from north of the border.

hm, its strange though, on my invoice there's no listing for PST & GST, just S&H. Would they then charge me for it?

I just ordered something from Newegg.ca (shipped from US) last week and it arrived by UPS but I never had to pay customs or brokerage fees.
