You need to contact UPS and get to their customer service for international shipping and tell them you are shipping the unit back to your customer that you repaired. There is special language that you can write for customs. Put in the value box the price for the repair and make sure you state this in the information box. That way you will reduce the fees to the person who receives it, this is different than the insured cost, get it?
HELP Question about shipping internationally.
Hello all,
I live in the USA. I have never shipped any gear internationally. I know some/all countries have import duties, taxes, VAT in Europe, etc. on foreign products when they arrive in their country. If I were to ship say a used cd player to another country would these "charges" be part of shipping costs on my end or would the person receiving it pay them when it arrives at its destination? I wanted to know before I list the item. Also are there any other problems or hassles I might encounter shipping internationally that any of you might know of?
Thanks a bunch everyone,
Jeff
