right, this didn't happen

Totes hypothetical, of course.

If one was--no reason--buying some sort of stuffed animal from a company in London--let's say Harrods--how does one discover what the everloving hell the duty and customs will be? I have found out for Canada, New Zealand, and possibly, Mars, but google is not cutting it--yes, I said it--and God, I don't even know

I wouldn't worry about it until the package get here unless you you still have the option to cancel it. If you Google, usa import custom fees, iirc you'll find out more--my browser isn't wanting to load those sites right now for me.

I don't know about buying direct from a UK business like Harrods but I have spent lots of money buying internationally from ebay sellers including UK businesses. I have never paid any sort of USA Customs fees or anything like that on anything I've ordered internationally. I don't know it I'm just lucky and got ignored or what or if the seller just mailed it such that I didn't have to it for whatever reason, but I've ordered hundreds of dollars of merchandise and didn't pay anything.

Hi, just letting you know that the lj links to your website no longer work (on your profile page and at the top left hand corner of your lj). Did you discontinue to the website, or change domains?
