Has anyone imported Radeon RX graphic cards (for mining)? If so, where did you buy and did you pay import tax?
From importing other electronics (laptop, phone, etc), I noticed that the post office often charges between 20 - 30% of the imported goods (instead of the standard 14% VAT). I asked...
How much you pay to bring in a parcel from overseas
When ordering an item from overseas, the cost can be inflated by customs duties.
While a product may seem cheaper to order from an international retailer than from a local retailer, markups and ad valorem duties may end up making it a...
Hi All
I am looking at ordering a Phantom 4 Pro directly from DJI (Seems to come out quite a bit cheaper) however postbox courier (http://www.postbox-courier.com/) are not able to bring in the LiPo batteries in if they are not part of the original kit (i.e. extra batteries). What is the...
Hi Guys,
I don't know the first thing about import/export. Or how retailers get their hands on their food & drink products.
I'm just curious to know if and how I would go about buying Monster cans in bulk. I drink 1 or 2 every day, so I'd rather just buy tons instead of going to always buy...
I would like to find out from those who have imported ARM development boards in connection with customs VAT and import duties.
For example, what rates have you paid when importing boards such as the Raspberry Pi?
I am asking because I am importing the Samsung Exynos 4412-based board on...
So I'm looking to upgrade my current system to an i7 6700k, GTX 1070 build. As you all know it is very expensive to do this in SA.. The best price I could find was from Wootware and it was for around R14600.00 for the card and the processor, which is a lot of money. To compare I looked up the...
Hello,
I just moved to ZA from the USA last week. My wife has an iPad with a cracked screen and I wanted to upgrade to the iPad pro next month. Apple products are insanely expensive here and I want to have one mailed from home. So I have a couple questions, if you don't mind helping.
1) can...
I'm looking at importing a big shipment of Nutritional/Supplements from a distributor in the USA.
1.) Can anyone recommend a Logistics/Import company to use?
2.) What are the duties and other costs involved in importing these type of products?
3.) Time frame for delivery once ship leaves...
I'm currently in Amsterdam, and I'm looking to buy an iPhone 6 since my s4 is a bit worn out. I can save around R2000 if I buy it here instead of SA. So I was wondering what I should take into consideration. Will it work in SA, and will I have warranty issues? If I crack the screen will they fix...
Hi guys, so I want to import playing cards into ZA. I do plan on using DHL or Fedex. I was wondering how much extra I would need to pay as import tax. The website asks an extra R50 because it is outside of the USA, but how much am I going to need to pay the import tax services. I don't want it...
Iv been looking around for a while now, and have seriously considered purchasing from America.
Reason being:
1. The Console is no longer region locked (NTSC & PAL)
2. Even with customs, it will still most probably turn out to be cheaper. You can get a console there for as little as $400...
I'm in the process of importing niche motorcycle accessories and replacement parts from South America and China.
The products are all priced within R300 to R800 and are the size of a shoebox and smaller, weighing anything from 1kg to under 5kg.
I've done all my market research and have...
As the title thread says, I am considering importing a laptop from the US. I've been struggling to find the same level of quality vs. price that companies there offer compared to what we're getting here.
So I would like to know from anyone that has imported a laptop from the US before on what...
It would be nice to see some pics of cars you don't see often on SA roads. Let me start.
Been eyeing this one for a while now, looks pretty sweet even if it is a VW. My guess would be that it's a British import.

Hi,
Anyone have experience buying from B&H Photo Video based in NY, USA.

I've heard from a friend that they're pretty good and deliver to SA. Their prices are really cheap. Any issues I should consider, customs, etc.
Looking at a Sony Nex-F3 Mirroless as a...
So after years of boring me with their bland designs and Kombi-like engine noise, I finally saw a Scooby that looks and sounds good.
Must have been an import from Japan because I could hardly believe it when I saw it had a Subaru badge on it :
Did anyone else pay taxes on importing their Raspberry Pi? I just got a collection slip from the post office and there is a R416.46 fee attached to it! Not a chance in hell I'm paying more for taxes than for the Pi.
Went for a jog and after 6km as I was finishing I thought a saw it from a distance. Initially I though, no its probably a Renault or something that looks close to it. Maybe I am hallucinating or something? But as I got closer...
Seems like some lucky person from Gauteng got their hands on a...
