[QUOTE="iowa boy, post: 795678, member: 13555"] Rick, Was the total value of the shipment 305 USD or is that what it cost you to ship it to Pakistan? The 705 dollars are brokerage fees that the company who is holding the package are charging to get your package thru customs in Pakistan. IIRC, brokerage fees are based partly on the value of the shipment. Unfortunately for you, the brokerage firm can charge whatever they see fit to get your package thru customs and make a little money for them too. And to have it shipped back to you, you will have to pay shipping charges to get it back to the states. I don't know if you will be charged brokerage fees by UPS here in the states if you have it returned to you. Wish I could be more helpful, but don't want to give you bad information either. [/QUOTE]
