I just joined CGC and dropped my first 20 books off at the CGC booth during the Toronto ComicCon. I asked the person at the booth about these customs forms that I read about in this thread. They told me that they handle all this since they now ship returned books via FedEx instead of registered mail.
I plan to ship out some more books direct myself. Have things changed or should I alow for the custom forms that are discussed here?
New to this any advice would be great!!!
Thanks!!

There shouldn't be any undue custom fees as we ship using Fed Ex Priority and most of the fees are supposed to be built into that cost, but it may be a helpful additional step if you want to include the form along with your comics for the return shipment. It would be best to consult with your local Customs office to find out your best course of action in this situation.

My apologies if I'm stepping on some toes Gemma.

So long as CGC marks the package as Canadian Goods returned then there are no customs fees. If they fail to do this you may be contacted by FedEx and can offer that explanation along with proof of shipment. If you get charged duty then you can fill out the attached paperwork and submitting to the government with the same explanation.

What FedEx Priority has built into the cost is the brokerage charge. Personally I ship via FedEx ground which does not have that cost built in. I get a separate charge for usually about $20 to cover brokerage. I do not get charged duty.
