do you know anyone in germany who could send it to you as a """gift"""
gifts are not excluded from the VAT; doesn't work
my parents live in Germany, we tried that with some stuff from Amazon
Because Amazon refuses to ship to Switzerland in general
wait, even if the sender adress is personal (as in your parents name and address)?
yes
huh, I heard this works to avoid taxes from US to Czechia and vice versa
doesn't seem to work everywhere, then
you're fucked I'm sorry
only up to some certain amount
claim the scooter is 40 euro? <:alismirk:230784726615588865>
you're not going tax free on a 400 $ scooter only because someone says it's a gift
I tried that with some hardware from Germany
I bought a ThinkPad t470p from the Lenovo Germany shop, shipped it to my parents, then my parents said it was a used thinkpad from ebay for 50$ and sent it to me
then I had to pay 137 $ of import tax
which is okay because the same thinkpad would have been about 400 $ more in Switzerland
But still, TL;DR
- EU sucks
- customs suck
- DHL sucks
I like customs in my country
they're so overwhelmed by incoming packages they often don't even make you pay
they just scan it to see if it's dangerous or not and let it go
literal roll of the dice
sometimes shit gets through
sometimes it doesn't
price on the box was 80 dollars and they let it slide
but before that they stopped a 70 dollar package and made me pay
Maybe I can just buy one of those scooters myself in December when I go to Hong Kong
and then bring it back as cabing baggage
buy yourself a qt
I already have a Chinese qt :^)
and drive back home on the scooters right into the sunset
wew
xiaomi qt-314
Actually Taiwanese, but Taiwan is just the better China
taiwan numba whun
xiaomi gf when
I'd buy that
2020: Xiaomi sexbot 37 $
Review: "Used it two times, pussy was held together only by duct tape, came inside and it started detaching. Re-fixed it with more duct tape. Moans in Chinese, turns me on a lot. But why does it need a Wi-Fi connection to operate?!?!"
Auto-mails your fuckin nut samples to China for use by ugly grills
if this works
