international shipping?

i may have to ship something to the UK

What do you write for customs value, currency, declared value, etc
and do u just ship it via UPS… or some other shipping company?

I shipped a set of wheels to Norway via USPS. Cheapest way out, but I found after the fact that USPS doesnt provide tracking #'s on International packages.

Be honest about values. The package could be held at customs in the UK, and normally the buyer is fully aware they need to pay taxes on full value.

you need custom docs. All you need to include is description, value and country of origin. UPS and Fedex will probably be the easiest most convienent(SP?)

So if the guy was like “hey i didnt get it”
but he actually did get it, wouldn’t i be fucked by paypal if he filed a claim? because they go off of tracking numbers

or if i had the receipt for the shipment, that’s all that would matter?

is it a lot of money? i have to ship a turbo

If you have all the affidavits for customs, there is no way paypal could take $ back.

alright cool, ill see if i can get an actual price so i dont eat a lot of cost.

thanks

Any int’l shipments should be paid for 100% buy the buyer.

I ship a lot of stuff USPS. There is tracking on Priority Mail Intl, and it comes with insurance, with the option to purchase more. You just have to fill out one form. Just make sure he knows he is going to have to pay his country’s customs fees, because if he cheaps out and has the post office return to sender, you will be in a whole world of fuck. (happened to be once with some UK scumbag). Other than that, it’s pretty easy and they do a good job of getting stuff where it needs to go. I don’t know how heavy it is so I don’t know how UPS compares, but check their sites for quotes.

Cant you check something somewhere that says you don’t want it returned if it’s not accepted?

wouldnt i get the money, and the turbo back then ?
