Sefton-EP91 Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 I've never brought anything from japan and was just wondering what other charges will I incur if I do? How expensive is it and how is it worked out? Thanks in advance Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kavan-k Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 You talking about the likes of RHDJapan? I think its on their site explaining it but the delivery is the tricky part if im not mistaken! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Burny Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 When buying the parts it will tell you how much shipping and handling is. The only other charge you will have is import tax which i believe is around 20% of the cost of the goods Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sefton-EP91 Posted August 31, 2013 Author Share Posted August 31, 2013 Has anyone brought from Jauce Japanese auction? You don't always get charged the import tax it'sPot luck really I've bought a few small things from rhd and never been charged the import tax Oh right see, does the import tax percentage include postage as to regarding working it out?

Whitenoize Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 I'm not to sure tbh mate as I've never had to pay it I think uk customs work out how much the fee is depending on the value of the item it's not included in the postage it can be quite expensive on large items Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sefton-EP91 Posted August 31, 2013 Author Share Posted August 31, 2013 I suppose the only way I'm going to find out is to just go ahead and buy something lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Addymk2 Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 You only get charged on the value of the item, or the value the seller has wrote on it lol Postage is a bitch though. I've brought a few ECUs over and been charged import tax 3 outa 4 times lol bastards. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kavan-k Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Was reading online there that apparantly import tax is only added depending on the weight of the item, then read again thats its the value.. Fuck knows haha just buy something and be dobe with it haha Quote Link to post Share on other sites
