Buying an item from Canada


Can anyone explain to me what is involved in buying an item from a Canadian seller and shipping into the U.S.  The item would be valued at $2500 CAD. What type of duty and taxes will be due?  The item is built in China. Will the shipping take longer than usual?  Thanks for any help.

The only way to go is Canada Post. If you use UPS etc. the brokerage fee’s are outrageous. I live in Canada and only buy from the US if it is through the USPS for the same reason.
