Custom charges?
#1

Can someone please tell me hows these work. Ive brought bout 3 pair of kicks from america n got custom charged twice, also got custom charged once from switzerland.
Does it depend on where it comes from or jus luck if they hold ur kicks at customs or not.
Its really starting to annoy me!

When buying from america u need to get them labelled as a "gift" and with a value of less than $50 on the box and hey presto no customs fee for you ever again Very Happy

It's not the size of the feet!!it's the amount of quality on em

Just remember the delivery company will also charge for the hassle of collecting & paying the fee!

My favourite way of getting kicks
I go down town, I hustle chicks - Beaver Patrol!

Not sure about the other parts of the world, but in Canada, you should have it sent regular post (priority or express) and NOT courier i.e. UPS/FedEx...border customs have a high % in pulling these over and dinging customs fees/taxs/duties...also have it marked as a gift and the magic $ should be 50-60$...
