Has anyone in Canada or the USA ordered two puzzles at once vs. just one? Did the extra "Declared Value" trigger duty and/or taxes? The reason I am asking is I want two more and if shipped together the shipping will be less but it might trigger duty and taxes which would offset the benefit of shipping together.
Just received a single puzzle in the mail and there was no duty or taxes.

Re: Cost of ordering two puzzles at once
I've got two sent at once... (orange and gold a couple christmases ago into the US). As far as i could tell i saved money shipping them together. I couldn't speak for CA. Hope that helps!

There is no import duty or taxes on puzzles imported into the US. Not sure about Canada.
Needs to be updated!

If you have them sent to a commercial or business address in Canada you will likely get a duty charge ( I have a few times). A residential address seems to escape the wrath of the tax man.
