Friendly shop.
Hi guys. I'd like to get a RTR 1/10 on track model, but customs here get a nice cut of the cake, I'm wondering if some of you know any online shop who would be kind enough to issue a lesser invoice with the pack for customs, while i'd be paying the full price, of course.
Any help is appreciated, thanks!!!

RE: Friendly shop.
You will find almost none that will do this. The Chinese ask us to do this all the time
with OEM equipement. The problem is if there was a dispute on payment
for the shipping company they would lose because of the invoice amount on the document.
Are you able to ship it as a gift from someone, as a way around customs .

Alrighy, i'll have to get a friend here then :P Been checking here, and prices are a rip off. I must pay 700 usd to assemble a Serpent Impulse (which btw, they are not longer produced) with a .12 engine and a basic controller and servos. And this does not include extra tires, fuel, starting table, etc.
Wanna be my friend?

Think you could register to a site with someone else's address (like your neighbours?) and then have it sent to your address as a "gift?" I know on Tower they always ask if you want it shipped to the registered location or not, I just don't know if they would mark it as a gift if you put in a different address.

The problem is Argentinian customs, if i make it sent to my neighbor he would still require to pay 72% of the purchase value in custom taxes.
