Selling to Canadians


I've read about nightmares selling equipment to our neighbors north of the border and would like to have some guidance on how best to handle such a transaction. Is there an exchange rate issue? Also, what's the best way to ship (cables) -- and how are the duties handled? Is it a percentage of the sale price and, if so, do they go by the price new or the resale price? Thanks a lot for your help.

My biggest complaint- Canadian buyers refusing to pay duties/taxes and these being billed back to me (sender from USA). For this reason I have stopped selling to Canadians unless I ship by US Postal service. I had to cover duties for 3 buyers over a period of 18 months- I finally QUIT offering items for Canadian buyers (except for small items shipped via USMail).
