Hey guys, I'm back. :zombiekun2
And uh, I have a question:
Yesterday I got a CD from Japan in the mall and I noticed that there was a customs charge. What I want to know is do I have to go pay for that charge or did somebody else have to pay?
I'm asking 'cause I never bought stuff from overseas online before so...yeah, I'm new to this. :U
*resumes lurking*
If you have the CD in your posession, someone else paid for it. (might have been opart of the shipping charge you paid)
Unless customs specifically asks you to pay a fee, you should be fine.
If it is in your possession, and if you are in the US, the charge has been paid. Either by you (whether directly by paying a fee that you seem to have forgotten or indirectly if you're right about not paying the fee), or by someone else. Ultimately, who cares?
For a classic prank involving export fees, see the following:

I would have gone to London to wait for the guy to accept the package...
Then I would have killed him with a rusty icepick.
Cuz that's what scammers deserve. >:3
