    import tax, how much

    Hi,

    I'm interested in purchasing a mitsubishi hc-kfs73b servo motor. Most often I find these listed from either china or south korea. Though the vendors have good reps i'm interested to know how much I'm actually going to pay in tax and import fees if I buy one and get it delivered to california, anybody got any ideas of prices? I would of course prefer to find a us source but ebay is choice as I'm on a budget. Thanks.

    usually $0, it is normally just the shipping costs listed on the auction, unless you get really unlucky and your stuff is held in customs for some reason.
    I've never had to pay more than what was agreed on with the ebay auction.

    Thanks that is good to know, I have never bought anything from either place so I was a little concerned.
