This is valid to anything from electronics, musical instruments and cars, etc.
$442 is 297 € and here we have it for 599€
Wouldn’t be more logic if they would pay more for the transport.
I have friend that goes to the states in December and I’ll ask him to bring me one, but it’s really a shame that I need to make this kind of scheme.
Hey, let me comfort you a little bit... Here in Israel there's a 100% sales tax on all the vehicles!! and let's not talk about the cell phones.. a cell phone costs like a honda civic in America..
talk about not fair!

And that's exactly what I'm doin too. My bro lives in NY, and my dad's friend works for the postal office, so I'll have the phone mailed to me over here without getting charged a custom's tax
