Customs bashing

So I guess it was revenge of The Man today. I've been lucky with imports, but today a parcel from a US online vendor got hit with duty. Omigosh!

So $190 box of cigars incurred duty and taxes of $360 CAD! Now I'm not sure of the math, but that verges just plain nasty.

Sending them backs not much of an option, as that too will cost postage etc, etc.

Going to stick in my throat when I light one. Could have bought Behikes at e price!
