duty/customs on pre-purchase photopass?

[MinnieMommy]

Does any know if we are charged duty when they ship the pre-purchased photopass to Canada?

no, i was not charged duty when they shipped either way. As for pre-order, you get an email code to use when you get back. Nothing is pre-shipped. once you order your CD then it will be shipped, no duties

Ordering a photobook from Disney is another story. Canadians get ripped off in shipping and duties

Thanks for the info!
I wanted to use the pre-purchase to save a bit, but was worried I'd lose most of the savings in duty charges! Glad that's not the case.

How do you prepurchase the photo cd? Do you have to have a promo code or something?

We prepurchased the photopass cd before we left in March '08. I brought the code with me and at the end od the trip I went to the photopass location in DTD and had the photos uploaded and burned onto the cd and took it home with me. I was worried about the duty charges also....I naively put together a photo book from are previous trip in'07 and by the time I paid the duty and the exchange it had cost me double the origional price I really felt ripped off.
