I’ve heard of people buying and bringing back, no problems. My AD told me to carry my card or a picture of it. I’ve just never heard of anyone getting charged.


I have. A guy I know bought an AP privately off forums in Toronto and went to Hong Kong. Agent noticed the watch and asked for proof of purchase within Canada. Couldn’t prove it. Border confiscated the watch and would not release it unless he paid $20k+ in taxes duties and fines.
