As for the Canadian $, the simple fact that it's at or near parity isn't enough. While some retailers will mark shipments as "gifts", most won't. This means that we often wind up paying up to an additional 50% of the merchandise total in shipping, duties or brokerage fees.

Ex: On a 125$ order form Title MMA I wound up having to pay 57$ in fees from UPS / CBSA. :S
did you use the canadian distributor they list in the web site? i think they actually do it through rival.

I've never actually had anything get stopped at the border.
