As far as I'm aware, only new items are charged import fees. She should have the purchase receipt. Used items are just processed like regular mail; could be wrong on that though.

Unfortunately no that's not true. Even if duty is not owed, GST is still charged (based on the declared value) as I found out yesterday. $3.50 in GST $38 in brokerage fees added on by UPS. Fuck these guys, it's predatory.
