Bill Piche Posted March 22, 2006 Author Share Posted March 22, 2006 Found out why i have to pay this amount.Even though it was a gift, because it was insured i think up to more than 45 dollar, i have to pay taxes. That it is a gift is not relevant, when you come above a certain amount of money, you will have to start paying tax. Why it didn't happen the other time, or any other time I got sth from the US, was that it wasn't never more than 45 dollar. The amount it is worth.. The only time was when i bought a Rolling thunder and a book from IM, i had to pay sth. So, that clears the story, but it still sucks big time! I forgot to insure the first time, hence no problems. I have a new way to send International now. Much cheaper at only about 10.00. Thanks for Franky for telling me about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankyBoy Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 You're welcome Bill. OTHO: So far never ever an envelop was examined for tax issues so far. You know: They don't expect 'goods' in envelops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuTCH Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Theo, you just have to make sure you slam it first time....don't want to have to pay that again! That is EXACTLY what is going through my mind Ahh, well, at least i got some sort of record here Just glad that the gripper wasn't lost or anything..

Hubgeezer Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 Held hostage Looks like I still have to pay them the money. I'll pick it up tomorrow, because I very grumpy old guy was working there, and I came in with the note that said it is in the postoffice.. Well, after standing in line for half an hour, i come up to his desk and hand him the paper. He looks at me and said, "can't help ya" .. So i say, "why not".. he goes: "because i can't" and i say:"Why not??" 'it has not been filled in properly' he says "whaddayamean??" 'today is 21st of march so the package is not in' 'but he gave it to me yesterday!!!' 'So guess the mailman filled in the wrong date then..' 'Well, can you look???' 'No, you will have to come back later' You know Theo, for the amount of taxes you guys pay over there, Holland deserves better than that. I think the postal department of every country is a nightmare. I think my insuring a gripper I sent you ended up costing you something too. Glad Bill is finding ways to work around it.
