When I was in DisneyWorld 20 years ago I found a very nice set of Japanese town buildings in the Japan area in Epcot. They were 1/60, perfect for 25mm gaming and since they looked like the structures one would see in a lot of Japanese cinema I bought two sets of them (18-20 buildings). Shortly after that Imai discontinued the line.

Gee, on top of $18 USD postage to Canada he adds another $9 USD in "import charges". Never seen that before.

yeah Ebay now has an international shipping thing where the seller can register, and instead of taking the chance that you will get hit with duty at the door, you can pay it up front, and not worry about it at the door(which also means you forgo the chance of paying nothing at the door if the Canada post lets it through for free.

it does mean that your package does get delivered to your door without issue(unless canada post decided it should be lost, which is happeneing more and more lately)

Good find!

I was under the impression that sellers who list an import charge are using FedEx or UPS instead of USPS to send their wares.
