another question Tracy!

when you send the cds by mail, when we preorder them from hevydevy by paypal, how do they come packaged?

I mean, because if it's clearly a bought imported product, i may have to pay almost 60% taxes over it if i'm not mistaken.

Not sure how it works wherever you're from, but here, from experience, a single cd will generally not get stopped by custsoms, its only something worth more/larger which they tend to stop most of the time.

well everything i've ordered international has come over okay and charge free cds shirts and whotnot.... one of my friends did have to pay nearly £100 extra on a guitar pedal

I have never had to pay any tax on CDs or shirts from HevyDevy before and I live in England, so you should be fine

thx guys

Tracy, if you get an order from me, please write "THIS IS NOT A PRODUCT! IT'S A PRESENT!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY YANKO!" on the envelope

Yup', in France everything is supposed to be taxed, but it's purely random.
I've already ordered stuff worth 30€ and I got taxes on it (my first foreign order in fact), and stuff worth 90€ and had no taxes on it. Since the first order, everything else was never taxed... Go figure...
As said upon, they may not bother for a CD.

I had never even thought of it, and now I'm beginning to be afraid...
Well, we'll see...

I've never had any comments about single CDs being taxed. Most countries have a minimum of around $30. CDs are marked $10. This goes the other way too, people. I have had to pay huge import taxes on our own product because people who want to exchange something list the price, including postage, as the value. I have paid $45 for a returned T-shirt.

If you ask, sometimes even if you don't, I will mark something a gift - but that does not exempt you from taxes, it is the discretion of the customs office whether to tax a gift.

Ok, I have a question. I ordered my Synchestra DVD edition (Euro) through the HDR website on the 25th. Now when does this ship? I saw something in the other forum about it not shipping until the 10th. Is this only for the jewel case version? Will my cd be coming within a few days via digipak?

Damn, I wish I ordered later. I want a jewel case. I have AE in digipak, as do I have a few other cds, and I never like them. But I only put my cd cases in the tower and put cds in a cd case, so I guess it is no big deal. Just preference.

It doesn't really matter to me whether I get the digipack or the jewel case. I just don't know how I'm going to hold up not listening to any of the online samples or downloading the leak until around the 10th.

Only a few weeks...

All orders have shipped. The HDR DVD will mail about the 13th. There will be preorders for it too a few days before.
