[sideshow]

i got a parcel worth 1400 us

and they put that invoice on it

had to pay 170 duty

so its not too bad

if u know them u can get them to write a dodgey invoice and then email u the correct invoice

thats what i did in my latest massive box of ls2 l76 l98 air flow meters and other stuff

another time i looked at buying this special battery powered crimper
i can get it from the uk but they wanted 300 bucks for postage
would have saved only a bit after i paid duty
then if the product failed im stuffed with what to do for warranty
as it would cost me 200 bucks to send it back then 300 back here again

so maybe see if its all worth it

for a 2000 dollars part from usa say u pay 200 duty
then u might pay 200 freight

are u goin to save thta much

if u are saving abit then just pay it

ive had parcels sent as gifts and they make them look like girly boxes and ****
but very little gets past them

probably the only way to not get cause is to find someone bring **** over in a contaner and chuck the boxes in

not many containers get checked totally
