This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

I bought an item from Pertemba CA in Amazon.ca only because I didn't see any shipping charges.
While buying with a cc, I went through the pages that there was no shipping charge.
When I got the purchase confirmation email, I got the shipping charge.
Escalated to them,
Manager Tom Pitt replied, "I can assure you that the shipping charges were applied at the time of purchase as we are not able to apply additional charges of any kind to an order once confirmed. These charges would have been visible to you when completing the order.
As this order has now been dispatched we are unable to cancel the order."
I replied, "Why this shipping fee was not visible on the first page?" No reply yet. Just shameless, born crooks to make money either breaking a hell or a brothel to buy fresh, succulent flesh.
Be careful in buying any products from Pertemba on Amazon Marketplace.

This is what is wrong with these types of comment boards, Amazon is the problem here and not the marketplace seller. Amazon consolidates sellers together in to single listings, if they are selling the same product. Just so you know, the shipping fees will ALWAYS be shown at checkout, you just need to read your final page review before confirming. As you might have multiple items in your basket coming from multiple sellers. This would mean multiple shipping fees.

Exactly. Walmart.ca lists the shipping fees with explanation why.
Fees were very reasonable considering shipment was from UK to CA.

In my case I did and do check. The extra fee is not applied by Pertemba it's their handler, and has to paid to them via post office but not part of the shipping fee. It's crazy. Middle man in my case is Global assist.

Walmart sells Pertemba, the extra fees I paid at point of delivery is not shipping charges it's a handling fee by Global assist. I contacted pertemba they just repeat we don't charge duty, yeah I realize that is built into the price, this $15. by Global assist is paid to them.

My items were for resale, after paying Global assist handling fees for products bought from Pertemba, I loose money. $15. Is more than 10%

Yes, that’s what happened to me. They stated it was a $5 flat rate shipping fee, which was paid when I placed the order. But when I picked it up at the post office I was charged an additional $21.39 COD charge

Pertemba CA is doing this to all on Amazon Marketplace, Amazon doesn't care, just expanding to have more crooks in her tummy. I buy more products on Amazon which display a shipping fee. I don't get carried away by Amazon Prime or no shipping fees because I know what will be the end result most of the time - falling at the hands of crooks. Honest businessmen put the shipping fees just below the product prices to avoid any confusion. Crooks do it in a crooked way Sad. Take it easy in the world of crooks.

who cares why do you expect your shipment to be free, you SHOULD be charged, and unless the charges are astronomical suck it up!

This has happened to me as well, I don't remember the seller. I am very mindful to shipping fees, mostly because I compare shop, so taxes, shipping and exchange rate when applicable I calculate. So when this happened on my order which I saw only after the order was processed. The next day I was moving the confirmation email to it's folder (my system) I thought to myself "wait a minute " price seemed different, I went to my notebook and confirmed was higher. So I re-ordered as though first time and we are correct, the shipping fee did not appear until confirmation. I've been more vigilant checking for inconsistencies. My pet peeve is most items that show same day or next day change to two days 'after' order is completed, I let it go every time because I rarely need anything now, I will think about that on renewal day for Prime membership since I don't take advantage of all the benefits.

Exactly my experience. I won't be renewing Prime. It's a gimmick. I as Prime member got early access to discounted items, I bought, just to find it was at same price later on, same for lightening deals. It's upsetting.
