[QUOTE="Egry, post: 5482518, member: 113686"]The global hunt for taxes has ramped up over the last few years and I don’t see it slowing down. I live in Australia and when purchasing anything out of Country they are forcing the 10% sales tax be paid. If I buy from an auction in Europe and they send it by regular post I have never had to pay the tax, but run the risk of it getting lost in the mail (which has happened a few times). So recently I’ve asked them to send with FedEx to ensure it arrives, but through FedEx they notify the Australian Boarder force once it hits our shores and hold it at ransoms until the 10% tax has been paid, then on top of that they charge an $88 fee for their trouble.[/QUOTE]
