    Quoted from Zartan:

    What did you do at the border? Claim it and go in to do the import paperwork, and pay the taxes? Was that before COVID when you didn’t have to do all the Canpass app information? Just curious, I like going over to the states to shop so when all this is done I will probably just bring them in myself! I really miss The Olive Garden! I no longer feel like family! Lol

    Claim everything accurately if going over the boarder, it is not worth trying the shave the amount down and get caught. I have heard horror stories and they are wise to pinflation. They want their taxes. Now, if everything goes well, someone just might waive you through and you won a mini lottery but otherwise just pay the piper and move forward.

    Quoted from Zartan:

    I almost always claim the right amount. I have brought a bigger item over, they sent me in, then they looked up the MSRP even though I had the proper receipts. They charged me on what they thought it was worth new as opposed to the used price from the pawn shop. I had to go online to prove what I paid. They still charged me the new price. I was talking about how some machines are made in the states some aren’t so how does he get the paperwork to show where it was made. Some things need different papers to import them. I really do want to bring some back on my own. It wold save me quite a bit of money.

    That is always my concern, the handful of times that I've done it. The worst would be if they used EBAY to counter value from. That would be ridiculous but I'm sure that there are stories...
