I live in USA.
How easy is it to buy things on amazon.cn (China) and ship them to my address here in the US? My concerns:
-Tariffs/taxes/government fees: Does anyone here have experience in buying directly from international markets? What would it cost me in fees to buy say, $600 worth of clothing from amazon.cn per month?
-Legality: According to amazon.com, this is completely legal, but I'm wondering if there's something I'm missing: can I expect to be taken down in a hail of gunfire by federal agents?
-Shipping costs: If anyone has done this, how much has it typically cost you to ship? Does purchasing in bulk help?
-Other: I feel like I'm missing something. Please tell me what it is if you know.
Thanks :smallsmile:
