someone probably marked gift on your package so you didn't have to pay the fees.

Fed ex brokerage fees are also pretty high. Value for duty ($33.75 for a $200 package) + $5.50 or 2.5% (whichever is higher)

If fed ex had a program like UPS has provided for our customers I would look at them immediately. Right now the $10 brokerage seems like it can't be beat.
