Hidden customs/duty costs — buried in fine print, not disclosed at checkout
WARNING TO ALL BUYERS: HIDDEN CUSTOMS & DUTY COSTS NOT DISCLOSED AT CHECKOUT. I made a purchase of a few items from this shop and paid an exorbitant shipping cost, then got a bill from FedEx for an additional $80 for customs/duty taxes. NOWHERE on the checkout page or the Shipping info page does it say this fee excludes customs duties and import taxes.
The only place this is mentioned is buried in Articles 4.2 and 17.6 of their Terms and Conditions — not at checkout, not on the Shipping page, not anywhere near the price breakdown or the “Pay” button. Unless you read a full legal document before purchasing, you will not see this coming.
Paying excess shipping costs and then getting ambushed with another bill weeks later isn’t reasonable, and hiding the disclosure in the Terms instead of flagging it clearly at checkout isn’t transparency — it’s the opposite.
Budget for the item, their inflated shipping, AND an unknown extra customs bill later, because they will not tell you that upfront. Extremely dissatisfied and would not recommend ordering here unless you’re prepared to dig through the fine print first.
