All those customs
My first big electronic purchase from aboard finally reached my hands yesterday.
It’s a bit of panic buy actually, because the item doesn’t show up often. Even in eBay there’s nobody putting it on sale for some time. The price is also good enough, under 10k￥.
But after this shipment, I’d remind myself every time I’d like to import sensitive stuffs (such as electronics), always choose the proxy that will take care of the customs.
They put tax higher than the cost of the item itself. Okay, so they look for the price from internet. Even then, the cost of new item is 30k. What they put on me is about 49k. More ridiculously, a staff said he had reduced it to 70%. I truly question what item he got the price from… an M8/9 ?
