You also had one posted for wholesalechess.com...

These people appear to be running a cross burder scam, where THEIR broker clips a huge profit off of it.

For instance, the cost of my set and clock was $80.00, but THEIR broker tacked on an extra $30.00 when it crossed the border (in addition to taxes and import duty).

Buyer Beware!

Thank you for your input! From my experience, an online shopper's best bet is through well-known sites like Amazon. Definitely beware the cross-border price tags.
