They may have fudged the #s so that you don't get hit with customs fees. I do it all the time when shipping stuff....errr I mean I see it all the time

Do you need to tell them to lower the vaule on the shipping for custom/duty or do they that automatic? I am interested in order from HK but it makes a lot difference with custom/duties. With custom/duties in Sweden, it makes not that big saving order from HK. Greatful for all info.

The thing is in the US toys such as these are exempt for tariff's and duties...

So they could put $1,000,000 on it and you wouldnt pay a penny.

However in Sweden they apply to custom and duties.
