Thedi MTC-127980, custom made
Perfect fit congratulations !Ce mauvais garçon est arrivé hier. Juste assez frais pour être porté dehors ce matin
I’ve never gotten this via postage. It usually comes to me via text or email. Just look up the tracking number online to see if it has any fees.. there probably is tax. I had to pay tax for my thedi’s.Sorry that this isn't a jacket pic, but I wasn't sure where else on The Fedora Lounge to post it. I received this "Duty and Tax Invoice" from FedEx and was wondering what you all think of it. It's in regards to my new Thedi jacket, but I've never received anything like it before for any overseas purchase. The way I see it, I purchased the jacket and FedEx delivered it to my doorstep, so the transaction is over. I assume Theodoros paid what he needed to pay to get it to me, so what is FedEx on about? At first I thought it was a scam, but now I don't think so. Have any of you received something similar after purchasing a Thedi jacket or anything else from overseas? I hate to be cheap, but $114 seems like a steep price to pay nowadays when you're not expecting it.

I appreciate any input you guys might have.
I've had to call brokers and dispute charges like this before. If there is no indication of duties/CoD to pay on the tracking info or when they deliver the package then my stance is the transaction is complete when the delivery is completed. I've had brokers come looking for duties after the fact before and I called to get them waived (although not to this same amount). It's like the grocery store calling you up to say they need to charge more for the bread you just bought yesterday.Sorry that this isn't a jacket pic, but I wasn't sure where else on The Fedora Lounge to post it.

I got a letter like that the other day. Import from UK to EU with fedex. FedEx seems to demand it afterwards, DHL before delivery. You can no longer avoid paying.
Just consider yourselves lucky there in the US.Sorry that this isn't a jacket pic, but I wasn't sure where else on The Fedora Lounge to post it.

Jesus Christ, that's insane.Just consider yourselves lucky there in the US.
For a similarly priced jacket coming out of the EU (~1500e) we would have to pay around 400e in import and VAT duties here, roughly 4 times more.
