Buying from the UK

[ChrisG]

I just wanted to ask all of those who have purchased shaving goods from the UK whether it be brushes, creams, soaps etc. Do you ever have to pay customs fees when it comes to the US on products? And what might the rates be?

I've only purchased sample packs from Trumpers and have not had to pay duty. I am not sure but have a suspicion it is what the shipper puts on the label, and the value of what you are getting.

I have been trying to find links for duty fees for products but can't find anything.

i am in the uk, and if needed am happy to order stuff and ship it over as a gift so you can dodge the taxes

I bought a few times from the UK to Oz and never had to pay taxes. It got stuck in custom a couple of times but I always received the goods...

Never any fees here.

I bought the Trumper sampler, and they waived VAT and no customs were imposed. I've also ordered Eucris from Mankind and it was the same story.

Some of the English sites do charge ridiculous shipping for full orders, though, so watch out.
