What happens if i refuse to pay for a customs charge on my parcel from the US?
I have recently bought an item off ebay from the US (im in the UK). I asked the seller to put a low value on the customs form and she said that was fine. I have received a customs charge letter today for this item.
I am not willing to pay it as i already asked her to put a low value and she didn't, if i had known that she wasn't going to i would have never bought it.
The custom charge is over £30! What will happen if i don't pay it? Will it be sent back to the seller? Do i have to pay it? Please let me know, Thanks in advance!

Ok, i understand now that it is fraud to ask the seller to put a low value.
But the fact is i asked her to put a low value and she said she would, if she had a problem with it then she should have told me there and then and i would not have purchased the item.
I just expected her to put a low value as she said she would, because of that i think we are both in the wrong slightly.
I do want the item but i am not willing to pay another £30 for it as it was hugely expensive anyway for what it was. I will just make a claim through paypal if she doesn't refund as i know it will end up being sent back to her.

It is returned to sender.

That's an awkward one because legally the seller was totally in the right to put the correct value on the form and putting a false value on was fraud. So the seller could argue that legally she's in the right and you're not.

The package will sit in a Royal Mail office for at least 6 months and then get either returned to sender or 'destroyed' ('destroyed' doesn't usually actually mean destroyed, it means that Royal Mail staff either take the contents as their own or Royal Mail get to auction the item off as their property.)

Next time, you've got to factor in the customs charge into the cost of buying internationally- no matter what you ask the seller to do.

If you refuse to pay it will either get sent back to the sender or just get destroyed by customs.

The sender is legally obligated to put the true value (or the amountit was sold for) on the form. Anything else is fraud and you are asking the seller to commit a crime.

We sent a $20 manual from the US to Canada via UPS. They were asking the customer in Canada to pay a $22 fee for a $20.00 manual. Sometimes the value doesn't matter much.

If you refuse, you are not eligible for a refund.

You don't pay you don't get the item, the choice is yours

What you basically did was ask the seller to commit an offence by not properly declaring the value of the item. Now you have a problem because she stuck to the law, you have little come back.

Either pay the tax or you don't get the item, simple as really.

The item will likely be returned to sender if you don't pay the tax/duty.

I assume you will be denied delivery. If you want it that bad, pay up.


magic_pixi
they will return to sender and if they cant find a return address they will get rid of it if you dont pay!!


Well, said Alberto
If it hasn't been delivered already, it will probably just be destroyed.
