Product Restrictions & Customs Declaration Information
Customs Clearance Issues:
If your declaration is inaccurate and results in customs returning the goods, the customer will lose the shipping cost. Many customers like to declare second-hand items as $1, which leads to customs inspection and return. To enhance safety and delivery rate and reduce inspections and returns, our company reserves the right to modify your item descriptions and declared values. If there are taxes, please bear them yourself. If the value of the goods is indeed low, you can provide an invoice as proof for customs. If you do not agree, please do not use our service.
