It costs -that- much for shipping, taxes and duties?

Well.. it still sounds way cheaper than 'hand' delivery.

"Update: 9/7/07 promatchrcr was kind enough to donate us a HTC Titan a.k.a PPC-6800 to send to Helmi_C. We also have received about 125 dollars in donations. We still need about 60 more dollars donated to cover shipping along with taxes and duties."

Wow, is this phone going to go to PPC Geeks' headquater in another country where it will be inspected and sent back to U.S.to Helmi_C? Or is Helmi_C living in another country?

If none of that apply, $185 is B.S.

LOL, you know when I read that I was thinking d**n!! I wasn't planning on hand delivering it!

I guess Helmi doesn't live in the US but it does sound high, I ship overseas and something much much heavier going priority was only 75.00. Now of course you have to label it as a gift or he will have to pay duties on it. Look into the new flat rate Global Priority Mail; much cheaper than UPS going overseas (most of the time)

Haha apparently uve never sent anything outside of the US. :rofl: I just done it 6 months ago with the Apache and it cost 90 or so to ship. And then 2 weeks later I got a bill in for taxes and duties of 89 or so. So talk what you know my man. Oh btw it was shipped via fed-ex.

That's why I stated "Is Helmi_C in another country? If not, it's BS."

And I appreciate and thank you for setting up this thread so we could get the mogul out to Helmi_C. =D> You've given me a reason to be excited. Now, I can't wait for Helmi_C to release updates.
