Anyone ordered from speedline?

Saw that speedline had valentis for ~300CAD and was wondering if anyone had ordered from them while in Canada? Just seeing if they hit you with duties or not.

I did. I told them to declare a lower value, same as I do with everyone else. No duties. Just make sure they don’t ship with Fedex or UPS

What did they ship with? In my experience UPS has lower duty fees while fedex and DHL had the highest

You live in a strange parallel universe. I don't think you're lying I just think you have had the outliers in experiences! The paintball forum I'm on has a STICKIED post in the GENERAL CHAT section called, "Canadians-For when a seller screws you by shipping UPS." I will only use UPS as an absolute last resort now.

USPS has been the best for me (and if you didn't know already, once the shipment hits the border you can put the USPS tracking number into the Canada Post site and continue to track the package). Lowest or most frequently not even charging duty. Followed my Fedex. My only order to come DHL came from Germany so I can't really say much about them.

I've had UPS try to pull shit on me like 40% of the declared true value. Told them to piss off and they started to "negotiate" not even sure of the legality of this.
USPS for me from US to Can.
