Buying batteries 4 camera on ebay from HongKong, any brokerage/duty?

[LoveRFD]

It says "Standard Int'l Flat Rate Shipping". I'm wondering if there will be any brokerage fee and duty. Anybody has experience?

I've never had taxes, duties, and/or brokerages added when I bought batteries from ebay coming from HK. It's always marked as gift. Just note that those batteries are not OEM so don't expect anything high quality.

Don't bother buying. The batteries will in due time overload and fry your camera. Save your money and spend it on an authentic battery from a reliable source.

The battery may not even pass Customs if it is not an approved battery.

I don't think I've ever been taxed on anything coming from Hong Kong. But, of course anything over $20 is subject to taxes and duties. Probably just GST and PST will be charged, if anything.
