yeah, I think they will follow it up alright.
You will ALWAYS pay if you use a courier like fedex, ups, dhl etc.
Only chance is if you use USPS on the american side and delivery by an post here.
Import duties and avoiding them?
Re: Import duties and avoiding them?
Do or do not, there is no try
Re: Import duties and avoiding them?
Well the seller is happy to send the goodies by whatever means I like - in fact they're really accommodating that way. I'm quite happy to wait an extra few days (if that's the difference) rather than pay additional taxes.Fran wrote:yeah, I think they will follow it up alright.

Re: Import duties and avoiding them?
Quick update.... this wonderful website http://store.acousticsounds.com/ are quite happy to ship USPS but you might have to let them know... I'm not sure if the choice is the buyers initially.
It's a great website and the easiest to get around of any similar websites. Some very serious vinyl - much of it produced by Acoustic Sounds themselves - plus shippable goods like cartridges, cables etc. Worth a browse....
Should you make an order and you get an email form Carley asking you to pay for your first order by paypal, money order or transfer just tell her I sent you because we've already had that discussion!

Re: Import duties and avoiding them?
I fully agree, I picked up some really nice vinyl and had the email discussion, but once I said Ivor sent me, all was sorted.
I felt a wee bit stung on the FedEx charge (€36) and I'm still waiting on a Tax bill, but the quality of the products and the fact that there is a person at the other end you can converse with, makes for an easier transaction.
One piece of music in-particular has leaped to the top of my music & sound quality list, a stunning 45rpm, 12", from Stax legends
"The Staple Singers" It's a twelve inch single Side A: I'll Take You there Side B: Respect Yourself.

A truly amazing piece of vinyl. So far everyone I've played it to brakes into a huge grin. Stunning!

"Respect Yourself" has to be one my favourite singles/songs ever. I'll grab it on my next order.Derek wrote:One piece of music in-particular has leaped to the top of my music & sound quality list, a stunning 45rpm, 12", from Stax legends
