Hi I’m not sure how else to reach you but by commenting here. This is regarding packages from abroad, delays and tax. I’ve read your post in 2009-2010 about buying online and customs. I’ve been buying since 2006 and fast forward to 2014, I’ve experienced so many changes including the fact that starting October this year, I’ve started to notice delays. Max was 3 months – a small cheap $10 item stuck @ customs for 3 months then transferred to our local PO with an almost 2k tax. Unlike before when you can bring a paypal invoice and they will recalculate or if it’s less than $50 they won’t charge you tax, now they’ll tax almost everything and obviously everything gets delayed because they seem to be holding more and packages for tax calculations. I’m expecting 3 more small and cheap packages which are all held and their agents can’t help. They can only say one thing – you have to wait for customs clearance. Anyone else who has experienced this? Apologies if you have another recent post about this but it’d be nice to make a new post with new updates to clarify if mine is an isolated case or should I be worried and just stop buying in the meantime until 2015. If this post should be elsewhere, pls feel free yo delete or move. Thank you so muh for your very interesting and helpful blog! xx
