I work at a Corvette shop in the states and we sell a lot of parts all over the world. Brokerage fees are nothing new and UPS doesn't include them with their standard shipping service. However, if you use their worldwide express or expedited service there are no brokerage fees, but the shipping charges are horrendous. You can find charts on UPS.com for what the brokerage fees would be for your shipment. If you're buying from the US, the USPS (United States Postal Service) is almost always the most cost effective.
