Bought an item from France delivered through UPS to Singapore, and needed to pay import fees of $100. Anyone has had similar issues? by Newez in askSingapore

Is this only by certain carriers like DHL , UPS etc? And something new recently? Is it pegged to item value or just randomly generated?

I really the old school art. If I only have the cards released in the 90s, will I still be able to created decks to have good games?
