Do you have to pay taxes or customs, etc on the purchase? And it's free shipping, too, right?

No tax and the shipping is not free. Chapters charges in CAD so with the shipping and the exchange rate, it's just a few dollars less then ordering from Kobo.

The Canadian post tracking now shows that it's left Canada.
Same number as Canada Post has worked for people in the past, just put it into the USPS tracking.

Thank you. That worked perfectly. It shows that the package has passed through the Toronto-A sort facility. I'll see where it is on Monday.

No tax. Okay. So what's the shipping, and the total cost (including shipping) in CDN $?

Canadians get free shipping but have to pay around 10-15% tax on the final cost. I'm wondering if you pay more or less than Canucks.

Glad to hear USA customers have had good luck with chapters. I went through kobo last time, worst customer support ever. Took twitter to get a response. I am 90% convinced to just splurge on the h2o. Enjoy your new reader

I'm not sure if the shipping charges differ from state to state, but this is the information from my order, if it helps.

Item(s) Subtotal: $179.99
Shipping and Handling: $15.29
TOTAL: $195.28

(Checking my card, the US total is $170 + some change)

That's the same as it was for my order. My guess is shipping to the US will be the same amount.

Use PayPal if you do not have a credit card that charges an international fee. That could raise the price beyond $179 (US).
