It might be time for someone to repost the classic US import post that gets trotted out every season... But I’m wondering what the experience has been for people in Canada when it comes to recent imports. What’s am I going to end up paying? For Canadians, there should be no extra taxes fees to pay upon delivery for MIE items. If It's MIC, you'll pay _a lot_ extra. A few hundred at least... 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What’s am I going to end up paying? Nothing other than the HST and UPS's brokerage fees ($10 usually)... unless the garments been produced anywhere other than the EU, then i think you're looking at around an additional 15%ish. The only example i have is of someone else getting their J1A last month and paying ~$600. The taxes would have been about $300, so the remaining costs are the tariffs. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deathrazr 67 Posted April 2 it’s pretty safe to assume the recent jackets are still made in EU judging by the prices. if they are made in China, expect to pay $3000 for a stotz jacket. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If both these jackets were MIC, the price of the J36-S wouldn't be anywhere close to the price of the 2.2 J1A-GT. This is just my assumption as I cannot confirm if the J36 is MIC or not 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

junkie_dolphin 522 Posted April 3 Digging through the archives, and wondering if anyone can clear something up for me. Old copy for the J36-GT lists the number of pockets as 9, including a mezzanine and internal pocket. The current version has only 5. Was the original copy wrong? Where were the other pockets? I mean, even if we allow for an internal pocket of some kind, and guess that the mezzanine pocket was behind the map pocket, there's still 2 pockets unaccounted for... Also interesting that there was a version of the J36-GT that had only one gravity pocket... 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
piece keeper 4,945 Posted April 3 Spec-sheet was a typo; the original online copy stated the correct 6 pockets (1 flak, 1 mezz, 2 gravity, 2 normal). 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stotz (cotton) Pants (P23-S, P26-S)6203.42.45 Considering the P10A-E isn’t cotton, you might have a tough time with that. I’m going to try 6203.43.03.00 or 6203.43.11.90 (synthetic fibers, RPO and water resistant) based on some cursory glances at the HTS. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thatslapz 95,966 Posted April 3 (edited) J76-GT black, P32-S, P32-DS, P10A-E alpha are made in CZ too. Codes I used for US: J76 - Jacket (Rec Outerwear, other, synthetic fiber) - 6201.99.1530 - 4.2% P32-DS and P10A-E - Pant (Rec outerwear, waterproof, synthetic fiber) - 6203.43.1190 - 7.1% P32-S - Pant (Rec outerwear, cotton fiber) - 6203.42.0716 - 16.6% Edited April 3 by thatslapz 25 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
junkie_dolphin 522 Posted April 4 In case there was any doubt, J36 looks like it was made in the EU. As a Canadian, I was charged HST plus a small import fee (like 10 bucks)—just as was expected from comments above. Thanks guys! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
segue 169 Posted April 4 Anyone having trouble getting in touch with UPS to update HTS codes? Called a bunch of times and I always get to a full mailbox or someone that keeps forwarding me to another person. My last name starts with K and I tried Tina griffin (who was like is this for acronym? LOL guessing y’all been bugging her) who then forwarded me to Xiamorra but I can’t seem to get through to her. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep, the Dallas office number referenced in previous posts seems to no longer be affiliated with UPS (my last name starts with W). Called the main brokerage line and was told to call a Philly number. Haven't been able to reach the person at the end of that number though. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bluecrush 86 Posted April 4 Yeah, last time I copped from mothersite and called UPS (SS18), Tina forwarded me to someone who was on vacation who never returned my call even after I left a voicemail. Ended up just shelling out. I have a feeling every time there is a drop they are just bombarded with calls. Maybe some day there will be a more efficient way to do this. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe I’m off, but I can’t seeing it being too hard for him to just change to a different code when shipping out to US. Edited April 4 by rmc 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
