So IMO there was never a SURPRISE express charge. It states clearly on our site what the shipping amount is for express. If people do not agree with the amount they are more than welcome to look up the shipping cost using fedex from Montreal to Brazil. We lose money on that.

The original card he ordered was shipped to him to his country. Once it got to his country and in the mailing system we have NO control over it. As you can see in this thread clearly Brazil has really bad mail service and is notorious for very slow mail.

As stated already - we will from now on if a user request express shipping using any other method that ordering straight from the site - we will double check with them that express shipping does come with a fee incase they have not seen on our site.
You realise any normal business would have said 'sure express shipment costs $x amount, would you still like to have the item shipped express post?'
