Hi FMs
Although there has been many discussion on the forum for this topic but due to everchanging regulations and scenarios I had to bring up a new thread.
I have been eyeing many equipments over foreign auction sites which are either not easily available in India or hard to come by in good condition.
I'm requesting FMs who have imported heavy and pricy equipments to share the time taken and precautions in placing such orders. Like likely customs, additional shipping charges etc.
I understand that importing something light and under 5k INR usually passes thru w/o attracting any customs but what about AVRs and amplifiers. What is the usual customs and charges lavied ? Is there any regulation regarding value of item being imported ?
I'm looking to buy from Japanese auction sites.
Such questions...
Please share your views and experiences.
Thanks n cheers
