You are NEVER safe from UPS.

They wanted me to pay $67 in fees for a $20 item. Even the driver thought it was ridiculous and told me to refuse it.

I did, they sent it back, and I called the selling website, told them what happened, and asked them to ship it again by USPS - they did, and I didn't pay anything.

Also, there is a "method" on RFD to bypass the brokerage fees by just importing the things yourself.

It does require some phone calls and visits to a customs office on your part though, so you choose the lesser of two evils.
