Got the white GAT's in 46 that I've been looking for forever. Shipping was $40, so the $160 became $200, but it's still a great deal. Thanks so much for that post gdl!

You should add that same amount back in to account for customs ****.

If you order from laboratorio, ask them to handle customs and just pay them. I have done it both ways, and it cost less when they handled it.

I am certain that you will have to pay customs one way or the other when ordering from them.

Is it true that items valued below $200 aren't subject to customs? A webshop told me that but it may be complete bullshit

Depends how it's shipped. Postal you should be okay. Fedex/DHL/UPS can still charge you brokerage.

I've had a few orders come in the past month via Fedex, British Royal Mail (guess USPS?) and UPS. No customs, orders ranged from $40-$300, maybe I got lucky?

I know... If this had just happened a week later I could have gone in person and would have proxied as well. But as it, still looking for a proxy myself.

I'm pissed I missed out on getting the W+H Sneakers for super cheap. I am in need of some baller black sneakers. Hopefully Porter has another drop on their MMMs.
