RoBo - That's exactly what I wanted to know - and from experience. Thanks. The guy I sold my e-tach to wanted me to put Used Toy and under value it so it makes it to him - I wanted extra advice on this. Thanks all. Any other tips for the form would be appreciated. |

The cheapest method is now "International Priority" which is equivalent of the old "AIR MAIL". Anyway, be honest on the customs, just DO NOT use the word "gun", since guns are obviously heavily regulated, and the customs agents might not understand the semantics. Use "Paintmarker". I've used the infamous Smart Parts term "Pneumatic Projectile Launching Device" before, and sometimes use "Sporting Equipment". Also, do not mark "gift". All that does is forfit your right for refunds

| WTB: ATS Mags  Join Date: Dec 2007 Location: Calgary AB Canada | Marking a lower value could screw you on insurance as well. For any large items, I always ask to declare and insure for full value. I'd rather pay a little extra tax and know if something goes wrong I can get my money back. Be sure to hold onto the shipping receipts for insurance purposes until you know it's been delivered.

I dismantled it and called it toy parts. Quote:
Its actually a partnership between USPS and FedEx. I shipped tracked and insured just under 4 lbs for $76.50 US. (thats what it cost me) Yeah its pricey but the guy had to have it. I dont usually ship international because people dont want to pay for tracked/insured shipping, and I dont ship any other way. Especially if they paid thru Paypal tracking to the destination is mandatory. EDIT: Oh my I am now leet  just noticed its my 1337th post ... Last edited by going_home; 06-26-2008 at 08:04 PM.. | ||
