1. Email UPS and tell him you will clear the package yourself.

2. Get the paper work from UPS to clear the package yourself.
3. Get the Invoice from Crucial that you can present as this a warranty replacement and value would be $0
4. Lookup CBSA near you and self-clear the package. Pay for the service, like $10 and send over the paper work back to UPS so they can release the package.
In that last part, in bold, did you mean, "so they can release the package from obligation to pay their brokerage fees"..... i.e. I assume you noticed he received the package already..... right?
NOTE: Do NOT ship using UPS Ground. Brokers will charge you $15 to pick up a pen and god forbid they actually have to fill out more than one checkbox, then they are on a roll...
EXACTLY! I'm sure I mentioned this here before, that I received a package years ago, upon which UPS tacked brokerage fees amounting to more than half the value of the item(s) I received..... needless to say, at that time I was shocked, and extremely pissed-off.
