Hi there. I have a question for the fellows from EU. How do you instruct your seller from US to arrange the invoice for a purchase - do you request a low invoice amount (less than 15 euro) or you go ahead with the real value, in order to take advantage of the insurance.
A seller from US suggested me to describe the goods as "kitchen tools", and he says that would "help with customs", while keeping the real amount...I dont know how a discription "kitchen tools" would help avoid/reduce EU customs taxes and then VAT....
I asked him to decalre it as "gift", but he suggested the above...
What is your experience, (EU) guys? US guys welcome to comment, too.
Thnks!
