Shipping Question

I wanted these wheels in ebay, but the shipping to HongKong is pretty expensive. The seller told me it would probably cost me around 800ish...

So i'm thinking if i should get them to ship to my place in Vancouver from the states, and then I'll ship it to HK myself.

The question is, can i neglect the tax, since i'm kinda transfering the package to HK instead, and not using it in Canada.

How much border tax and stuff we do pay? Was it 14%?

I ordered my wheels from **********s and they were delivered to my door. I wasn't charged by fedex. Should I be expecting a bill in the mail? I was confused ..

My dad has a x5 in HongKong and wants to get some cheap oem reps. Ebay has it for about 650...+160 shipping to canada. No tires, just rims.

So should I be expecting 810 + 12%? and then ship to HK?

'Cause i was hoping i can ignore the 12% cuz i'm actually transferring the stuff to HK and not really using it in Canada.

you should seriously tell your dad to try and look for some at wheel shops, particularly the one in Choi Hung rd in San Po Kong, theres tons of used oem or new oem reps there, for probably around the same price or even less.

I dont see how you can justify paying for shipping cuz you know where most replicas are made already! Don't let them take a round trip from Asia to NA back to asia!!!

I know that place, i thought it was only used stuff, but i'll check it out just in case.

thanks for the advice, i really hate to ship the stuff all the way to HK, too.
