My Mouser order was a pleasant surprise: no broker/customs fees whatsoever.
Cost me $8 US for postage through USPS, that's all. Sweet.
UPS has my Jameco order...ordered BEFORE the Mouser stuff, mind you. Argh.

The trick is to keep it down to a small cardboard envelope in size. Gonna
make getting that Hammond Enclosure across a little tricky.
