any ebay questions?

I sell on ebay for a living and have found this site helpful and will answer as many questions from members as possible.

Thanks Mega. :wink:

Any questions folks :?:

Yes ! Is there a way to buy expensive lots of karat gold (from the US) then insured it to the real price and pay no customs fees/taxes ?
I know UPS was crappy with me, they charged me around 40% of the value of the item in «duty fees». USPS has been a way more friendly but there's a limit...

Any thoughts ?

Thanks

have you tried fedex or the newer company DHL? I know some guys shipping things back and forth use to mark light items as photo's so they weren't x-rayed and were seldom bothered. And the prefered vender was FexEx back in the day.

I've had really good experiences with FedEx for international sales of expensive stuff. DHL is tops for hazmat, they give really good pricing.

not that I know of. that is a tax/duty issue not a ebay issue, sorry.
