QUOTE(rurushu @ Apr 4 2012, 11:47 PM) but most proxy asks for around 10% of the price of the item... that makes avoiding custom no difference? coz custom also charges 10% tax..... well, the good thing is no need to open in front of them la  no,no,no... custom will seized / confiscate any nude stuff. To avoid that risk, use proxy.

QUOTE(Exiled_Gundam @ Apr 5 2012, 10:14 AM) What's the declaration of yours? Some shop do underdeclare or declare as different items to avoid tax they were declared as they were; dollfies with the exact amounts I mentioned. two from dollmore and one from iplehouse, both of which are Korean. as I've said i brought my volks dolls in personally. which is why it confuses me how my friend who ordered his volks online had to pay for tax ._x This post has been edited by olivur: Apr 5 2012, 11:59 AM

Currently i have pre-ordered 5 cast-off figures from amiami and as we all know, Amiami won't under declare item real values.

All 3 mentioned have been pushed back for a late April 2012 release. On the other hand, a new Figma has opened for pre-orders today.
