Anyone bought from Canada and had it sent to US?

Stay tuned. I'm concerned about Customs from Canada, too. Current Amazon Canada delivery in Canada scheduled for June 19th. Amazon Canada has already cancelled two previous Creator Combo orders on me before shipment. Once Reship takes possession in Canada, they ship it to me in the U.S., but I won't find out what additional tariffs will be charged by the U.S. until U.S. Customs receives it from the international courier. As long my additional costs are less than $1,000, I'm good. I'm hoping less. The declared value is the $3500 USD price before Canadian taxes and Canadian Chinese tariffs that I will already have paid Amazon Canada at $4,030 USD for the Creator Combo.

A few questions...any idea why they canceled your previous 2 orders? Is this reship company providing you a Canadian address for Amazon to ship it to? When did you pay these taxes and tariffs, when you made the purchase?

Amazon Canada claimed suspected fraudulent activity on my Amazon account both times, and "to protect me" cancelled all outstanding orders, deleted my newly added Canadian address, and removed my credit card from my Amazon account, and then locked my Amazon account at Amazon.CA and Amazon.com! Meanwhile, I was repeatedly calling Amazon to tell them I was verifying the charges as mine, not disputing them, but they kept treating it as though I was still disputing the charges! During this time, the available stock at Amazon was immediately exhausted and sold to others. Eventually, the creator Combo became available again with a delivery date of June 19, and that purchase now shows it has gone though, and has not yet been cancelled. However, until they actually ship it and successfully deliver it to Reship, anything can happen. Because of the high dollar amount, delivery also requires a One Time Password be given to the driver by a human at the delivery address, and that 6 digit number is only available to me on the morning of the day of delivery via email, which I have to enter into my Reship.com account before the delivery with the tracking number. They sure don't make it easy!

Reship has a Canadian warehouse address for delivery from Amazon Canada, and assigns each customer a unique 7 digit alphanumeric suite number at that address, which is then tied to your account.

I was charged all Canadian taxes and Canadian Chinese import tariffs (roughly $530) by Amazon included as part of my $4030 USD order total. Still uncharged are any additional U.S. import and Chinese tariff fees, which will be based upon my online Customs Declaration that I file, after Reship takes possession, before Reship charges me their reshipping fee to the U.S., which depends upon the Amazon box size, but Reship's fee should be less than $100. All in, it will likely be about $5,000 U.S., but I will then have a "bird in the hand" with a 12 month Canadian DJI warranty, with potential Refresh availability, which I most likely won't purchase, as I have never had a claim on any DJI aircraft upon which I purchased Care Refresh, so I'll self-insure this time.

Right on, thanks for the info. Please let me know when the customs fees are levied and what they amounted to. Sucks you gotta pay import tariffs for 2 countries. I know a whole lot of nothing about how an object is sent from Canada to the US, but I assume since it crosses that boarder, it's not just like mailing a parcel in the continental US that would get little to no screening on its route...
