Import tax by country: 12 pairs with real photos

Skip the album hunt — tell us which pair
We buy for an alliance of Chinese factories and ship with international couriers, so you only need to show us the pair: we purchase it, photograph it and send it to your door. Every pair costs less than 100 USD or 100 €, and three items in one parcel travel with free delivery. Retail customers buy a single pair; shops and group buyers get wholesale rates on bigger lists. Send the screenshot and we answer quickly with the final price to your country. After you confirm, the parcel needs 6–12 days and comes with tracking. Wrong size, crushed box or lost parcel: we send the pair again. Payment by Western Union, bank wire, USDT or PayPal Friends & Family.

Rules change; the price we quote is calculated for your address on the day you order, so the number you agree is the number you pay.
How we price customs into your order
When you message us, we quote the pair, the shipping and the import charge for your country together. You don't pay a surprise bill at the door for parcels we quote this way; if a rule changes before you pay, we tell you.
Shoes and tariff categories
Under the EU's interim rule, a parcel with two pairs of trainers counts as one tariff category, while trainers plus a hoodie count as two — so mixed parcels cost slightly more in duty.
