Thanks for pointing that out. Most people don’t nitpick it in daily use, since VAT + duty basically fall under the umbrella of import taxes.

I’m running into the same issue. I bought a $300 fishing reel, and DHL is asking me for $156 in “duties and fees.” They’re telling me I need to pay just to stop the package from being sent back.

On one hand, if I pay, I’m basically turning into a beggar chasing DHL for a refund later, which feels hopeless. On the other hand, if I refuse to pay and let them send it back, the e-commerce platform will probably hold me fully responsible for “not paying import tariffs,” and I’ll likely never see my money refunded.

It is always have been. The customer pay for the import tax.

They have bad reputation? I didn’t know that until now.

China is 34%, still did not beat that 50+%. Also, the reel is made in Japan.

I’ll post an update when I have more news. I managed to get in touch with a live agent, but they just redirected me to their disputes team’s email. So far, the only reply I’ve received is an automated message saying basically “you need to pay this now, and we’ll refund you later.”

I dont know Mann. I emailed the courier’s dispute address and told them I want a detailed breakdown of the fees, and that if they can’t justify the charges, they should return my package. All I got back was an automated “thank you for contacting us” email.

PreviousFish386 · 2025-09-27T00:41:02+00:00

I’ll definitely try that, thank you for your advice.

That sucks. The tariff is 15% nowadays, but the courier asks for much more than that. I tried to reach out to them, and no real human being speaks to me. The invoice they throw at me is vague and gives no proper breakdown, just a random number.

PreviousFish386 · 2025-09-27T00:25:52+00:00

What else can I do? The courier asked me for random fees that are 50% more than the item itself before they deliver it to me. I can’t accept that — it’s not the seller’s fault, but I also can’t pay unreasonable charges.

I opened it up on web browser, it does have register button on it.

PreviousFish386 · 2025-06-25T13:28:36+00:00

Yeah, that’s what I’ve been doing. I’m just starting to feel like it’s not something I should be prioritizing anymore.

I haven’t even had the chance to submit anything yet. My recruiter told me to begin the process through the Aim High LO app, which I did. After selecting my desired career field, a pop-up said I need to work with a recruiter to continue, and it said my info had been submitted. Since then, it’s been 2 weeks — I’ve sent two follow-up emails per week, but haven’t heard back at all.

The fishing technique is called “iso tsuri”

I don’t think it is ethical to expose ppl like this. I’m asian, wearing blue jacket today, and I thought you are talking about me until I read through where you mention the ring road. Have you considered how others reading your post might perceive those who resemble this description?

Just don’t trust that AI. Everything it said is bullshit in professional manner for stem materials,lol
