I am expecting my delivery of world of harry potter 3D cards next mon/tues :o= by UPS worldwide express which takes 1-2 days to arrive ;D , does anyone know what UPS do about customs charges to be paid I paid $370.75/£185.92 incling shipping costs for 5 boxes, do they collect the customs charge on delivery or invoice you after they have delivered ::) : Re: UPS customs charge help : kbmum June 06, 2007, 11:59:34 PM I believe your question was already answered in the 3D thread.

Are TNT the same has UPS then, because thats where the links goes to :): Re: UPS customs charge help : kbmum June 07, 2007, 12:06:44 AM TNT and UPS are not the same. This is what Rich With Cards posted:
I havent dealt with TNT recently but seem to remember them asking for payment upon delivery. With parcel force you normally get a letter sent out to advise that there is a customs charge to pay before they try to deliver it. DHL will deliver first but then send a customs invoice afterwards. UPS will normally deliver and ask for payment upon delivery. Either way you will pay an extra 20% based upon the shipment value if over £36. : Re: UPS customs charge help : Nienna June 07, 2007, 12:19:15 AM Steve: USPS parcels are normally delivered by Parcel Force, TNT is a different carrier altogether as is DHL. Some US sellers use DHL to send the bigger stuff abroad - trust me, DHL are definitely nothing to do with either USPS or Parcel Force.
Rich's advice is absolutely sound as he's dealt with all of them. |
