Chaps.

Think I can sort the shipping ok but will I incur import charges when doing so? Don't want to agree an acceptable cost for the brakes only to incur massive and unexpected import charges? How is it worked out anyway, weight or value or something else?

This is sending from UK to the USA though. Will the USA charge me (the person who posts them) anything to do so eg import / export taxes of some sort?

Recipient pays. Which carrier are you looking at? And total value?
Still trying to find best / cheapest / quickest shipping route! The kit is about 30kg in weight and the box is about 40cm x 40cm x 40cm. Value is about £2k.

Ok so shipping sorted. I now have various "labels" + a customs invoice ... what goes on the box and in the box and what do I simply just keep for myself?
