Good, USPS/CanadaPost is by far my preferred option when getting
something from the states (I've actually cancelled an order a couple of
times when I found the vendor only offered UPS, Fedex I'm OK with).

This doesn't make sense. While I'm sure UPS/Fedex is free to send you a
bill, I don't see any reason for you to pay it.

Companies will often send a bill out to the other party when the correct
party refuses to pay, in the hope that the first party actually pays for
something they never had to. I wonder if this is a similar case.

Doesn't matter though, USPS is the only choice in my mind.
