Ebay import charges ?

[Alex]

I live in Cyprus and buy from eBay and online quite a lot. When I have purchased from the US I have never had to pay the seller anything extra. However, I do have to pay importation duties directly to customs at the post office when the goods arrive or in case it is sent via a courier the courier will charge me importation tax and a clearance fee. This is always done locally and is not the sellers responsibility as they are not the ones importing the goods. In my experience you should not be paying anything extra to the seller on top of transportation costs and the cost of the goods.

Hope this helps.
