Most Canadians have horror stories to tell regarding cross border UPS shipments.
I could tell a few but don't want to bad mouth US sellers for simply not understanding UPS policies.

Anyone who says "It only goes together one way" has no imagination.
I order from a company in Canada so no duties on that. They charged me USD dollars but I was aware of that. I paid approx 72 USD including HST or Canada tax.
My issue is that they overcharge me $10 extra which is pocket change but still, they did not have the decency of getting back to me to explain why the jump without my consent.
A reputable company doing this leaves me a lot to say about their reputation. Good thing it was $10 grab from $40 dollar order. Can imagine how much they sneak out of you from bigger orders.

Using a currency conversion for today $72 USD = $96.60 Canadian Dollars
I'd say $96.60 Canadian Dollars is pretty close to $100.00 Canadian Dollars that he claimed cost him. That's not counting the currency processing fee from the Bank.
So much for buying from Igus Canada instead of Igus USA!

I just did the conversion for you and it's not $53.62 your stating. Why do you feel a need to say that it did not cost him the $100 it did?
"I'm sure" Igus is not the only supplier of "quality cable" here in Canada, or the only ones that can provide "suitable cable" for hobbyists at a "reasonable" end price.
Canada is a fairly large country with manufactures of it's own. Might even find a suitable supplier close to home with no shipping or exchange rate.
Worse comes to worse... I'll pay the $100 for 15' of cable and buy from Igus Canada!
I don't understand the point you are insisting on making.
The TOTAL COST to him was $100 CAD not $53.62
if $53.62 CAD was the total cost to my door... I would have bought from them myself!
What makes it even more outrageous... the shipping to him from supposedly "Igus Canada" and the SAME Province was $25USD not $25CAD
It looks to me that Igus Canada is just an office in Canada and the orders get fulfilled is the US which accounts for the crazy end price to the Canadian consumer.
Shipping is not a norm that everyone has to deal with... you may be able to buy locally if you do your homework and a lot of Canadian suppliers offer "Free Shipping" or "Reasonable Shipping" as they do in the US.
But before you post that FREE Shipping is not FREE... I do accept the fact that Shipping is always worked into the price to make it so called Free.
But at least.... the price is the price and there is no SURPRISE!!!
As for what we where talking about was not the overall cost but just the cable cost it's self
That makes sense that if it was shipped from the US and not in Canada the cost would be crazy, give the Canada IGUS a call and find out for sure what they are doing You could get someone in the US to ship you some if it was a cheaper way to do it
