I think you can become your own broker through the US Custom department.

But the warranty would be a show stopper. It might be coming from outside Canada so I wouldn't.
I got all OCD and went ahead and ordered from the Canadian store after checking the Canada Post website and it didn't seem there were any problems shipping electronics.

Seeing as it was free shipping I presumed it would shipped through the post... just got the receipt emailed to me... shipped UPSS = UPS standard. (they didn't give shipping options)

I have done a bunch of shipping for work with UPS/FedEx so I guess I'm rolling the dice on this one.
