Couple more pics.  We were using minis from Tanks!/Flames of War: Team Yankee and just goofing around with the rules to compare/contrast WaW85 vs.  Tanks!

Vance, why didn't you have it sent to your Nuke York postal address?

Someone on the KS page mentioned getting charged import fees and I think it was David Heath directed them to open a support ticket

Yeah, that was me when I got a call from Fedex telling me there'd be a charge.  I wasn't charged during delivery and haven't heard anything yet.

$10 FedEx handling
$19... import duty
+HST on handing
+ HST on duty

(HST=Harmonized sales tax=combination of provincial sales tax and federal sales tax)

I thought when they said shipping is dealt with I just assumed there'd be no taxes - no extras. To pay tax on top of the cost of the game (and almost as much as the game) is shocking. I thought tax was meant to be a percentage of the cost - not whatever they want.

Second Chance Games have the games apparently
