Deceptive billing for foreign buyers! When products are in the shopping cart, there is literal banner at the top that says “Import Duties and Taxes Included”…Paid with Apple Pay and the total jumped from $227.50 to a whopping $300.67. Why? Taxes and duties. I emailed them to request that refund and included the website screenshot of “Import Duties and Taxes Included.” They tried to blame Apple Pay, “That is the total Apple Pay authorizes and captures.” So I inquired about cancelling the order and re-ordering to pay without Apple Pay. Easy fix, right? Wrong. 26 minutes after they emailed to say they were sending the order, I got a response saying, “No, cancelling and placing the order again would not avoid taxes and duties. If the shipment is going to the same destination, any applicable import VAT, duties, and carrier handling fees can still be charged. So I would not recommend cancelling.” So they are dishonest about “Import Duties and Taxes Included.” (…Otherwise they are at best disingenuous or sloppy on their website leaving a 30% surprise extra charge). I’d give 1 star, but they were: 1) responsive to emailing, which seems rare these days; and 2) on the assumption these are the greatest $150 CAD exercise shorts known to man (unknown since not received yet), which is more than the cost of my designer jeans. For “genuine” “verification” Order #23348 placed on 17-Feb-2026.
