For people in Canada, I just checked on the government website and it was told there was no custom fees on headphones, so don't get scammed! You can check this out here : http://cbsa.gc.ca/trade-commerce/tariff-tarif/2015/01-99/01-99-t2015-2-eng.pdf , item # 8518.30.91 00

Yes, there shouldn't be any duties, it's the courier who like UPS and DHL charges 20% brokerage fees once passing the border for custom clearance.

You are correct but any electronics imported into the country are charged hst/gst based on the purchase price. In the case of ontario its 13%. So 199 usd plus 13% tax, brokerage fees are done by some carriers but not by usps/canada post
