Customs 23-00p......i am not grumbling as the candy is worth every penny but the p*p already was $41 95 paid from poor Jodi over in the usa....to send it to me......has anyone had to pay this before on your candy wins from over seas....

Postage is absurd and I worry about that when it comes to doing a candy of my own, i know the postage will drain my savings account in itself, but how to avoid the winners from paying on it also, i think is this: if the value exceeds $50 usd, then taxes will be assessed in the amount of the declared value, in addition to a handling fee from both ends of the transaction. So, you will get a handling fee from the US end, as well as your own peeps and then whatever the tax on the dollar amount declared is equals what you had to pay. Shipping OS stinks, the postage costs more than what you're sending most times. Anyhoo, glad to hear you got some cancan!! Buidling anticipation I guess!!
