- the price they listed in the email was in demominatedocal currency but the “US price”, which is hundreds lowe
- is this still a legit thing, thought tariffs were ruled illegal or sometjing
Its extra weird cuz it dances around whether it has any effect on it arriving. Its acting like its a precautionary “we just want to get your shit to you on schedule so do your part”
DHL will send these emails. You don’t need to pre-pay. Earlier this year I ignored them and my package came without any duties.
This is what my email looked like:
I bought from the US into Canada.
UPS also doesn’t require pre-payment, but they WILL send you a hefty invoice since they do their own customs clearance and charge you for the service.
So does DHL (the last line item). It’s not cheaper if you prepay.
Sounds sus
Did you order something that has cross border duties or tarrifs, CIA eBay?
But, on the other hand when I ordered something the prepay was at time of ordering via eBay directly
but the “US price”, which is hundreds lowe.
What does this mean? The currency rate is wrong?
