I know what you mean, I just got clobbered with a £10.99 customs charge as my DVD order from Play.com was a quid over the maximum.bergen-dreamer wrote:My shipment arrived today, but since it has been through customs I won't be able to pick it up before Monday
And can you belive it: The value of my goodies are approx. 66 Euros (B2, Lorley DVD, Electronic Meditation T-shirt) and for that I'm being charged Nkr 265 (about £25) in customs and VAT, which is more than 1/3 of the value of the package
I suspect this is because Norway is not an EU country. What an absurd rip-off, maybe we can request Eastgate stuff to be sent like regular mail in the future?bergen-dreamer wrote:My shipment arrived today, but since it has been through customs I won't be able to pick it up before Monday

You are right about that Jacob, it IS because we are not members of the EU - everything with a value over Nkr 200 is stopped at custumsjacob wrote:I suspect this is because Norway is not an EU country.

Could you not get one of us to order you the stuff and then send it to you as a gift? Would that work are gifts only allowed to be up to a certain value?bergen-dreamer wrote:My shipment arrived today, but since it has been through customs I won't be able to pick it up before Monday

I might take advantage of your kind offer on future orders Timtimer wrote:TangFanIRL wrote:Could you not get one of us to order you the stuff and then send it to you as a gift?
