Be sure to use USPS, UPS will screw you with brokerage fees.
In my case, the box containing the gloves came in freely. They opened the box the pads were in and estimated a 200$ value  . This box came in two days later. I had to pay GST + Québec TVQ + small brokerage for a total of 37$ cdn.

Same thing happened to me when my gloves arrived. I paid the exact same charge too. On a side note, after two games and some stretching at home, the glove is perfectly broken in. No real effort req'd to open or close it, and it feels great during games. As for the blocker, it feels even better, due to the 'XL' sized palm I asked Pete to install. The balance and weight are perfect. I could not be happier w/ these gloves!
