Buying from Pricejapan.com and import duties

[David]

Hi All,

I'm wondering if anyone knows of a website that can give info on import
duties and taxes that are payable if I decide to buy from pricejapan.com. I
am located in Australia.

Many thanks in advance.

David.

Did you evaluate the actual final price or did you see the item cost and not
the japanese taxes.

Local fees can be as much as 10% + $50 customs clearance. Some people get
slugged with 5% duty on certain items.
