My stubborn wife order a light for my Cybook, value around $40 and was charged around $40 broker fee!?!?!?! I think it was UPS Ground. I told her not to order anything via UPS Ground, but .... sigh
I can confirm that Bookeen used FedEx Air which DID NOT charge any extra fees (besides shipping fee and standard Canadian GST/PST).
So NAEB should make sure to offer alternatives to UPS Ground, such as USPS ground say.

Yikes! Thank you for the heads-up! We will add that option - maybe change things around.
