Japan golf bag

[davesamms]

I live in New Brunswick Canada. I want to buy a golf bag from Japan. Has anyone else done so?  Real or counterfeit?  Duty crazy?  Any info would help. Thanks.

You will pay duty if any

on any import valued over $20CDN (~$16USD) including the shipping cost.

More importantly, you will pay sales tax on any import valued over $20CDN (~$16USD) including the shipping cost.

And the shipping company is allowed to charge for their customs brokerage services. Most couriers charge $25+ and Canada Post charges $9.95.

The Japanese have a strong reputation for honesty. But check the place of manufacture for the bag. It should match that on the manufacturer's website.

Any seller can list on any site. Unfortunately, many scammers from Asia list on the Australian site, for example.
