Canadian needs help finding online stores he can afford to buy from - Tiki Marketplace

The prices were American, so the exchange rate was a thing, but still not too bad. Then the price doubled to actually ship them here. Again, given how affordable they were, I wasn't too put out. But then they e-mailed me for a confirmation, letting me know that UPS was going to charge another 40%-80% ON TOP of that for duties and service charges and God knows what else. That was that and I cancelled the order. That leaves me with the issue of wanting these blasted Tiki mugs but having to find affordable places to get them from. So, does anybody know of any places here in Canada I can order mugs from? Or fellow Canadians, any recommendations of online stores that don't gouge? Thanks!
