I’ve purchased electronics twice w/o any problem. I would advise speaking to the seller by phone first, so that there are no misunderstandings.
If you ship via Canada Post, it will be very slow and the tracking # will be meaningless when it leaves Canada. After clearing customs USPS will transport the item.
UPS is fast; they pickup the item, it gets held in customs for a short time, then UPS continues the delivery. You will be charged a customs fee based on the manufacturer’s country of origin plus the fee to import from Canada to the US. If the seller is a dealer he can give you an estimated fee.
When UPS comes to your door they will charge you the fee as COD (and they want cash).
Today $2500 CAD equals $1968 USD and that gets charged to your credit card or PayPal.
