How much online shopping abroad?

Buy web buy online

As there are various people who do this type of transactions over the Web, and there may be many like me who do not dare to buy online, very nteresante posting this report I found on a site.


Here the report:

When an operation abroad via web should take into account several items, and almost never appearing online the value will ultimately fertilize here.

One question that came up, and sure many of you do. When making an online purchase abroad should consider several items, as it hardly ever the value of the overseas (in the web page where you want to buy) is that really you must pay in Argentina.

First keep in mind that to enter the product to Argentina, you will pay a percentage of original value in respect of import duties (taxes), expenses and duties, the statistical rate (0.5% - a gigs INDEC), the value added tax (VAT) and the advancement of Income (3%). In addition must be added the expenses related to freight (here usually involved an international company called "Courrier": Fedex, DHL, etc..).



MECON on the page tell us:
As a general rule, we can say that products with a value less than $ 3,000 and weighing less than 50kg. can be sent and received by courier. However, in cases where products require a stamp, for example, in the case of footwear, textiles, cosmetics, and electronics, among others, Customs retains the goods and takes them as "loads ". In these cases, the consumer must use a customs broker to try to withdraw the products. This process includes several additional costs that must be taken into account before ordering the product.

We advise the customer system of courier companies and the customs before making a purchase online. In most cases, buying the product from local or national sites will be cheaper because the cost of international insurance and international freight and taxes and rates of naturalization.

As you can see, buying abroad is always attractive, because we can get much lower prices for the domestic market, but this is usually only an illusion, because the final price often be increased by 60% or more.

It is worth mentioning that these measures have been adopted mainly for two reasons: First, protect the domestic market and second, raise more.
