duty paid on items from the states

[mum2]

hi,
I’m just wondering if anyone knows about import duty when u buy items from the states online… I know that when we bought things before we were surprised that we had to pay extra when it was delivered to the door

thanks in advance girls,

think it depends if the person sending writes the amount, also if customs opens….i had to pay 20e for items that were marked 90 dollars…bummer, but still worked out cheaper than buying here also i think kids clothes you don’t pay duty could be wrong….

if ya pm caligal she may be able to help

If you get your items gift wrapped they sometimes over look these items and you might just might get away with it…. but a big clamp down at the moment and nearly every parcel is getting stopped in Customs, as before they sat on there arses and did ramdom checks, i know this as i worked in customs for a while many moons ago 😆 😆 😆
Most of the male staff were in the video room watching movies send in the post!!!!!
