And as this is the question portion of the ched, just wondering if anyone ever brought in a boosted board, or if there are any (by a decent company) available locally?

Hazardous material in shipping includes any gas under pressure or potentially under pressure.stev wrote:ordered 2 sets of shocks/springs...one brand was tagged as 'Hazmat' as it contained non flammable gas (air ride)...the other brand wasnt tagged (normal coilovers).
apparently some seaboxes dont take packages with the Hazmat sticker (Tropical express told me that, not sure how true).
hazmat tagged box was sent via air and the other sent via sea. both were around 60lbs, air was $1,800 to clear, sea was $800.
messaged the shipper and they said that it's some new law where they have the right to tag their packages based on it's contents...some liability thing. meh

An item of $20 usd value was charged $17ttd in opt tax. This is unacceptable. As with shipping, duties and the tax, my total to receive my item is $190ttd. So i am paying 100$ in tax for a $150 item in addition to the $100 for shipping. And impsbert dont find this unreasonable.
But again. What is it to sacrifice a pawn to get a bishop? This is the end of the line for the pnm, for imbert, for rowley and these old fogies with their outdated thinking and bogus management of our resources that have been destroying this country. This is the last time they will hold government office in their lifetime.

I know I'm bumping an old post, but I was just told by Tropical Express that the online tax exemption for sea freight is supposedly only for businesses and not individuals?
What has your experience been with them in this regard? It sounds like a load of crap to me IMO.
