I also buy stuff on eBay sometimes but it wouldn't be cost effective to pay $15.00 for every single one if each "vendor" is different?

Brokerage per vendor means they use a customs broker and pass the charges on to you. I've used for a few things that wouldn't ship to Canada, but the brokerage is on the expensive side I thought. I've been meaning to ask if they would let me use one of the cheap online customs brokers, which they might.
