    Purchasing parts from Bike Bandit

    Hey guys I want to know if anyone has made any purchases from Motorcycle Parts, Motorcycle Accessories by BikeBandit.com, the reason I is that i am going to make a purchase and they will be charging me tax and duty as a seperate cost to the parts, does this i mean i wont be charged tax when it comes to Australia or is it American taxes, please note there is no gst excluded type footnote on the prices of the parts.

    Cheers

    Alex

    Sounds dodgy to me. Payment of Tax and Duty is always the responsibility of the receiver. Because you are an overseas customer they shouldnt be charging you any state taxes they have.

    Myself, I would be very wary of a company that says they are going to pay the charges on an item to another country when those charges have not yet been assessed BY that other country.

    From the supplier you should be liable for item + shipping only

    At this end whatever customs dutys IF applicable.

    Up to you man.
