Shipping Magnepans into canada. DUTY???

The reason I ask is I am considering some Magnepans and I thought I might try the MMG available from Magnepan. I think I would end up with the 12's or 1.6's but I thought I would start with the MMG with money back offer.

I called them and they said that they do ship to canada via UPS and there would be some sort of brokerage charge and tax, but will there be any sort of duty charged???

Has anyone done this? How much does it really end up costing in the end? Would I be better off to purhase a used pair from with Canada and then resell them if I am not happy?

Thanks
Nick

Yes, Corby is right I have shipped UPS Expedited both ways and not only is it 2-3days,the brokerage is included.
Also note that the package doesn't get handled a zillion times before you get it.
I have Maggie's and yes it is tough to get to a dealer.
Scope out A'gon and note room size and amplification.
ie.,bigger the room the bigger the speakers and power.
Need at least 200 watts for 1.6's,maybe 60 good watts for the MMG's, . Just my $.02 .
