In the last year or so i have placed several orders for airsoft parts/accessories, two of which have come from the US. Both of these orders were delivered by UPS and BOTH have had ridiculous "brokerage" fees addded onto the already high shipping cost. The latest one was from Airsoft GI. The order was originally $150+35 shipping. When the package arrived at the boarder it was stopped and after several phone calls to Airsoft GI and UPS i was informed that an extra $42 would need to be paid until the shipment would go past the boarder.

I have never had such problems when receiving shipments from the asian retailers, (who dont use UPS) so it looks like the problems lies with UPS.

Anybody else having issues with Airsoft GI or UPS shipping in general?
