Perhaps this is more of a rec.bicycles.marketplace question, although it does concerning racing, sort of. . .
Anyone know where the best place to order A Sunday In Hell on DVD? I've never seen it before and I'm thinking of asking for it for Xmas. I'm in Canada, if I were to order it from the US (seeing as the Canadian dollar is doing good right now) would I get charged duty by Canada Customs? Or should I order it from a Canadian shop like www.labicicletta.com??

Does Canada Customs charge duty on imported DVDs? I'm pretty sure they charge GST at least.

If the claimed value of the shipment is $20 or less then no extra charges are levied. Over that amount and you're charged around 15% or so. This applies to USPS/Canada post shipments.
Private couriers - FedEx, Purolator - may also exact an amount over and above the government's due, justifying it as a 'processing' fee or similar. The most notorious in this regard is UPS - the fees are usurious. Avoid UPS wherever possible.

Any idea how much World Cycling Productions charges for shipping DVDs? According to their page at http://www.worldcycling.com/merchant.mvc?Screen=SFNT&page=shipping.html they charge $18.50 for USPS to Canada, which seems rather steep. Can I not just get it sent via USPS First Class for $7.95?
