Hi, I ordered an Onyx Boox M92 from ereader-store.de and paid $34 dollars for shipping at the time of purchase. This already seemed a bit high to me, as I've handled international UPS shipping before.

Then, at the time of accepting the package, I was charged an additional $21.72 by UPS in undisclosed brokerage fees.

What gives? Did others have this same experience with Booxtor and ereader-store.de? I otherwise had a positive experience, but $55 in shipping for a 1 kilogram package is absurd, especially when 40% of it was unexpected to me until the package showed up at my door.
