Hi everyone,
This is my first post, but I''ve been lurking for a while. It seems that I''ve finally found the diamond that I want, but am a little worried about ordering it from the states (I live in Canada). The stone is at the upper limit of my budget and I don''t know if I would be able to pay duty, excise tax (I''m not sure what this is, just that I don''t want to pay it!) and canadian taxes on top of everything else...
Has anyone else gone through the process before? Can you tell me what I should expect in terms of extra costs? Is there any way to get out of paying these extra things, like if I went to pick it up myself? Anyway, that''s all for now, and thanks for reading this!
