Again, I live in Canada so I dun really know if the US Fedex does the same thing. But I was one of the victims. I got a headphone (hikki's HS pv one) delivered by Fedex. A month after I received a letter saying that I owed them $20 (according to my memory) because they paid for my custom while shipping. Later on I learned (from another AHS member) that a custom handling fee was included in the payment. So probly if I used normal mail (e.g., EMS), I would probly only need to pay for $10 for the custom, but now I had to pay extra because Fedex "helped" me to pay the custom in the beginning.

And I was cleaning my room last nite, and found out that the actual payment was $30. I dun believe that a $80 headphone would cost me that much for tax and duty.
