$134 in custom/brokerage/tax charges for 1 DVD is a bit steep.

I got my "The Last Emperor" collector's edition from France yesterday. Postman says, you owe me $134. I went huh? So I examine the package and the Custom's Canada form says "value: $610 CDN". What the f...! You know what these bozos did? The invoice has 2 prices, one in Euros and one in French francs. They took the french francs amount (345) and converted that to CDN $ as if it were Euros!

Thank god for that refund form. Still a pain though.
