I thought you had to write the value of imported goods on a label which is stuck on the outside of the package? If -not- then that's a very cool trick which I'll employ next time I buy something from the US.
I recently bought some bits and pieces from US which cost me something like $200 (which included a FedEx cost of something like $90). On arrival to UK, I was charged an extra £40(ish) for "clearing" and import duty. For goods which cost around $110, I ended up paying an additional $80 (!!) on to the shipping price which, in itself, was already kind of high. -- gutted http://www.last.fm/user/gutt3d/ Slimserver 6.5.4 +MusicIP Mixer 1.7.1 +AlienBBC 1.06 +Slimscrobbler 0.37.5 Windows 2000 Professional sp4 Intel Celeron 1.4GHz 512MB RAM Squeezebox 3 wireless (Player Firmware Version: 55) Library of approx 7600 tracks (MP3 and FLAC) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ gutted's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=147 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=39979
