    Guitar-Case

    +1. On acoustic I like Martin and Yamaha, each one on its own price category, offer good sound, are well built and are nice to play. Epiphones for instance sound good and are affordable, but they're harder to play, perhaps not as a good first guitar as the Yamaha.
  23. Here it's the customs office through the mail service (which carries the delivery service once the parcel is in the country) who handles the taxes expenses. They usually confirm they have a parcel for you and ask for a payment receipt or an invoice, then they add the shipping cost and calculate the taxes and fees. Once you agree and wire payment, they delivery the goods. There are few cases, when the parcel is not very expensive or large, that they calculate the taxes so you pay them to the deliverer. I guess that each country would have its own procedures, it's possible that at some places it's EMS who acts as agent handling the import papers directly, then charging them to you, as Fedex or UPS would do. You're very likely to get better information if you contact your local EMS representatives.
  24. Get well soon, Mike. Damn stupid teeth
  25. I'm in Europe and have ordered goods from Japan several times. I've always used EMS, they're cheaper than Fedex and the like and they don't charge their own fees for clearing customs, but I've always had to pay duties, fees, fleet, VAT and other charges. In this country (Spain) the overall expense to import something from outside the EU is about 30% of the declared value (including shipping cost). So declared value, and what you can produce as a payment receipt, or invoice, are the key items to estimate your customs cost.
