I'm looking to buy a 2001fp from ebay. Just wondering how much (if any) duty or taxes I'll have to pay. The cost is $510 USD with shipping, how much extra will I have to pay. Thanks.

I think it's like 10%. But since it's for personal use you may be exempt. Where are Dell's manufactured? If it's made in the US and for you're personal use you should be exempt from duty under the NAFTA agreement. I had to pay duty on everything I sent to Canada that I shipped via UPS but I believe it should have been exempt. I just paid the duty though because it was only like $50 and I got tired of arguing with Canadian customs over it. So I just said take my money and give me my stuff, a lot of which was broken by the time it made it out of customs.
