Hi y'all,

already have a few cards now in my Comc.com account and I'm gonna let them sent it to me in Belgium, Europe for the first time...

Now my question, what value do they put on the envelope when they sent it out to me? I know a lot of people told me they put the true value on there and some said they follow the prices on their servers or value from the card at what it's bought on Ebay???

Import charges here are unreal expenisve, paying around $60 for a $90 card so just wanted to hear you guys out, so I know what I'm dealing with here and don't get any more surprises when the mailman is at my door :D

Thanx y'all!!

I am not living in Europe, but as an international buyers, I will told you my experience with COMC mailbox shipments..

I used COMC mailbox services as intermediate party and use their US address as tran shipment proxy since many ebay seller and group breaker host refused to sent outside US continent.. Use this services since 2012, has been shipped hundreds packages with nearly thousand cards..and only have one shipment issue.. That's possibly lost during transit.

In shipment label, they declared the item value as a real purchased value only if you purchased the card in their websites..

Any item purchased from outside COMC will declared as N/A, $ 0.01 or zero in value at shipment label..

If you mix the cards in packages (egg ; 2 cards from com mailbox originated purchased from Ebay, and 5 cards from comc with purchased value $ 25) then your declared value at shipment label will be written as $ 25 for that packages..

I strongly recommended to used at least Rapid Shipment (around $7-8) or express shipment for any high end cards, and click the optional box "Gift without purchase value" ..

If you want to decrease the importing tax, its a good strategy to mix the cards you purchased from other sources outside COMC, and purchase few cards from COMC websites, so your packing list/invoice will not declared as $ 0.01. Because the custom officers will confused if you package was $ 0.01 in value, and for that curiosity, they possibly will track down your goods value from your paypal or credit cards payment. Its happened here to me in my country. To avoid that situation which will lost your more money and time., don't ever let your declared value in shipment label for a "not make sense value" in custom officer perspectives..

Good luck ..
