Import tax

Amuse370z

I'm planning on buying some CE28s and a HKS Exhaust but I'm worried the import tax will rape me. Buying used = no import tax, and I correct? Can the companies ship the products as a "gift"?

Ahh I've done this many times. Ok speak with the companmy first, some companies are awesome and willing to claim they are selling you 'used' wheels valued at 500$.

Another method is the 'gift' method, you still have to pay duties/customs on anything over $250 but I see no problem with buying the exhaust, having it sent as a $200 gift and paying minimal fees.

Sadly some companies aren't willing to accomodate us in this manner.

I have found that 8 ouf of the 10 items I have purchased in the states the seller was willing to list as 'gift' at a fraction of the actual value which has saved me thousands in customs.

The only downside is that your package will only be insured for the claimed value.

Hope this helps...
