I have a post box in the US. My wife and I regularly go across and pick our orders up there.
I don't pay taxes on the way back, let's leave it at that.

Yeah this could actually be a solution. There's also a big struggle to import exotic leather and this would most likely solve it too.
I don't have a passport tho believe it or not.
Ah, yeah that'll help to get one.
I buy a lot of my pens from US companies and ship them there. I could buy a whole other pen for the taxes I paid on the first order I had from Goulet Pens so we switched to this and I've kept so much more of my own money that way.
More pens and sats for me!

Even on pens??? That is so weird. There's a lot of things I can order from the US without getting these fees. I ALWAYS get them when it comes to leather and hardware tho it's more like a commercial purchase. On a pen it's weird.
Yeah over about $100 they'll typically ding it for the taxes. My first order was around $300 some and I paid I think about $85 in duties. I could have bought a whole other pen for that.
