yes, it will be taxed.. almost 30% of the price you pay for the items. Anyway, u can less the amount for taxes payment, if you ask the seller to include the invoice with low price of all the items. just to make it looks like dummy thing and when reach the custom, the thing they saw first is the invoice enclosed with the item. But depends, sometimes it's fixed 30% taxes but sometimes not... smile.gif

Wow 30% why so much?

So from my understanding it's the components + shipping price = total that will be taxable.

Yeah i was thinking of that too Kino and asking them to label as a gift. I've had experiences importing Audio Technica headphones overseas. The first time i was taxed !! the 2nd time i wasn't !! So really, sometimes your lucky, sometimes your not  rclxub.gif

the component + shipping price is always taxable together. This is why the price is expensive especially when you take on a small amount of items compared to big bundled item.
yeahhh sometimes even bad happen when the shipping loss its item bundled or only box reach the buyer.. that's a bad and i thought maybe some custom staff took that item. doh.gif rclxub.gif

i think you can declare the item for personal use and not intended for commercial use. maybe can avoid the tax if luckily enough smile.gif

ask the seller to declare it as a gift for some parts and include the dummy invoices should keep you safe. smile.gif
