Import Taxes? For Books? In the U.S.? One thing I've noticed in these posts about inflated prices is references to paying import charges.

Ordered via local independent book shop, shipped to them.. 3. Ordered via American lace book suppliers, shipped to them.. 4. Hand carried in luggage and cleared through Customs. Is this tax some of you are referring to charged to suppliers who import one title in large quantities?
