Thanks Michael... when the "product" is exposed negs, there shouldn't be any
charges .. When the product is a film carrier for my microtek, I feel it's
robbery to be charged almost 40.00 just for customs to look at it. :)

I'm in Calgary, and that's what I pay here. Except last trip downtown, I
complained about the cost and was given a 'discount'.

I'll look into it, thanks.

I don't blame you.
