UPS: Brokerage fees for Stubhub tickets?

[Cowboy89]

I thought I would contact the CP brain trust. I'm looking to buy tickets for the Angels baseball game vs. the Blue Jays this Friday and the seats on stubhub that look the best are available via UPS shipping. Stubhub had previously used Fedex and now has switched. Has anyone had tickets from the US delivered from Stubhub via UPS? If so did UPS charge ridiculous brokerage or otherwise incur more delays or problems than FedEx or US postal service?

I don't think I have ever paid a UPS fee from Stubhub. I have tickets coming this afternoon and will confirm this for you though.

Personally I wouldn't buy StubHub tickets unless I can download and print them off right away. That way you can avoid the worry if the tickets will actually arrive in time.

Stubhub covers you if the tickets don't arrive in time. They have top notch customer service. Everything is guaranteed and they go above and beyond to help out.

Looks like I can't tell you about the fee's associated with tickets as mine were shipped from Stubhub Toronto office so they didn't cross the boarder.

I received a Stubhub order last year via UPS from the US. There were no brokerage fees -- it was sent via UPS Worldwide.

There won't be any brokerage fees, as the tickets themselves are of no value in Canada. It's not like importing a VCR where duty and tax would be owed (I used the VCR reference since you're using old school hard tickets, and therefore you probably like other outdated stuff).

or they collect ticket stubs like a lot of other people do

We are going to the game as well and we'll be picking up tickets at

LMS center address
StubHub Anaheim
2400 East Katella Avenue, Suite 160,
Anaheim, CA 92806

which is only 0.25 miles away from Angels stadium. Best solution since we are staying in hotels from day to day at other cities and won't have an address for UPS to ship to. Go Jays GO!!!

That's what we ended up doing. Go Jays Go! We'll be there on Friday and Saturday.
